Hello everyone. Im not sure if this would be the correct place to post and ask this, but since it is in regards to spamassassin, i figured i' give it a shot.

Im running a RH 9.0 box with Postfix +Amavis-new +clamav and Spamassassin.

Here is my question: When I run amavisd-new in debug mode, these lines pop out at me:

Jul 29 14:19:24 corpmail amavisd[1126]: SpamControl: initializing Mail::SpamAssassin
Jul 29 14:19:24 corpmail amavisd[1126]: SpamControl: turning on SA auto-whitelisting (AWL)
Failed to create default user preference file /var/amavis/.spamassassin/user_prefs


Ok...so it found SpamAssassin, but failed on the user_prefs.
Here is where im a bit confused.

I have two places where spamassassin is installed. (I should mention, I installed spamassassin via perl -MCPAN)

here is where they are located:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]# ls -la /etc/mail/spamassassin/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Jul 29 13:59 .
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 Jul 29 09:14 ..
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          267 Jul 29 09:14 local.cf

[EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]# ls -la /var/amavis/.spamassassin/
total 16
drwx------    2 vscan    vscan        4096 Jul 29 14:19 .
drwxr-x---    5 vscan    vscan        4096 Jul 29 14:19 ..
-rw-------    1 vscan    amavis      12288 Jul 29 14:19 auto-whitelist

Ok..so I have SA located in /etc/mail/spamassassin
and
another located in /var/amavis/.spamassassin

Can someone explain to me why this is and what is the recommend method?

Thank you.

Jason
