Ok, thanks for the info.I think i will just disable SA being called through procmail and let MailScanner handle it. Is this the correct way of doing it? I have one more question regarding MailScanner and SA. If I set it to have MailScanner call SA, does SA still use the rules in local.cf or does it use MailScanners configuration files. In other words, if I have custom rules, wherte should they be put so that they still work when MailScanner calls SA?

Especially if you're doing something like a sendmail milter. Shouldn't it be possible to simply check for the presence of spamassassin markup before calling it a second time ?? So for example if they wanted to call it as a sendmail milter and also optionally from procmail during local delivery, it is trivial for the procmail script to check for existing spamassassin markup before deciding whether to call SA or not. Not that I'm suggesting this is a good setup, but it certainly easy to avoid calling it twice on the same message...
