The implementations of amavis I have seen rely on a seperate user for the Amavis daemon to run in. whatever this user is the auto-whitelist file will be created in is home directory as .spamassassin/auto-whitelist e.g /var/amavis/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist, you can check this by copying the check_whitelist for the SA dist\tools folder to somewhere like /usr/local/bin and then switching user to either amavis or vscan depending on your setup. From its output it should be obvious where it thinks the files should be or whats in auto-whitelist.
You should make your system wide changes in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, for testing your setup accurately you need to be in your amavisd user and then run spamassassin -D --lint To update your auto-whitelist you need to be in the amavisd user again and use spamassassin --add-addr-to-whitelist [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you do this as the root user then a auto-whitelist file is created in /root/.spamassassin/ but SA under amavisd looks in /var/amavis/.spamassassin/ Hope this helps PS SA is Great!!!!!!!!!!! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: eBay Get office equipment for less on eBay! http://adfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/711-11697-6916-5 _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
