Let me state up front that I don't have alot of experiance installing packages on Linux (but I am trying).
I've got SA2.6 installed (it compiled cleanly) and appears to be working (well, the sa-learn I feed an mbox of saved spams worked ok). How do I get SA to actually begin checking the email coming into this system? This is a small machine with only a handful of users running RH Linux 8 w/ sendmail. I do have MySQL installed (use that for Horde/Imp), but do not really care whether the individual preferences are saved there or in the ~/.spamassassin location (I'll do whichever is 'better' and easier). I want SA to run by default for everyone (ie. I want sendmail to call it, not have everyone call it from a .procmailrc script). I would like the bayes learning & preferences to be user-by-user. Reading the docs, I *think* what I want is to use the spamd/spamc option, right? So when reading http://www.spamassassin.org/dist/spamd/README.spamd I get to the part where it says: Simply copy the two executables to where you want them. Then, configure your system to run spamd in the background, and where your mailer invokes 'spamassassin' instead invoke 'spamc'. It's that easy! There's a Red Hat/Mandrake-style startup script called 'spamassassin' in this directory, suitable for installation in /etc/rc.d/init.d . Hmm. How do I "configure my system to run spamd in the background" and where does the mailer "invoke spamassassin" that I would change to spamc? (see, I told you I didn't have alot of experiance) -- + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Chris Barnes AOL IM: CNBarnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM: chrisnbarnes Computer Systems Manager ph: 979-845-7801 Department of Physics fax: 979-845-2590 Texas A&M University ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
