I'm having a large number of problems with SpamAssassin presently, and the docs don't say _anything_ that's helpful.
1. My users' user_prefs files are not being read. In local.cf, I have allow_user_rules set to 1, and I've restarted spamd at least 3 times since making that change, with no change in behavior. Since there's nothing about user_prefs files in the maillog, I haven't the foggiest notion what's wrong. 2. Bayesian learning simply is not happening. None of the spam that arrives here has anything in it's tags about 'Bayesian filters estimate there is a xx-xx% chance...'. Since there's no such thing as a spamassassin log file which might tell me what SA is doing, I'm completely in the dark as to why this is. I have not changed any options relating to bayesian filtering, and the docs say it's supposed to be on by default. 3. Spamc always runs as root. Spamd always believes a particular piece of mail is for root. Here's the log lines to prove it: Apr 2 09:49:11 mail spamd[30566]: connection from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] at port 4728 Apr 2 09:49:11 mail spamd[31653]: info: setuid to root succeeded Apr 2 09:49:11 mail spamd[31653]: Still running as root: user not specified with -u, not found, or set to root. Fall back to nobody. Apr 2 09:49:11 mail spamd[31653]: processing message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for root:99. Here's my version info: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.52 1.174.2.8-2003-03-24-exp And my uname -a: Linux mail.booksys.com 2.2.16-22 #1 Tue Aug 22 16:49:06 EDT 2000 i686 unknown Does anyone have even the remotest idea how to fix these problems? Could someone direct me to some better docs than the FAQ and man pages? -- Johnny Wales Book Systems, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ValueWeb: Dedicated Hosting for just $79/mo with 500 GB of bandwidth!
