Please forgive me if this is already answered in the list archives. But, if
it is, I didn't find it:

My config is sendmail and procmail with SA 2.55 on FreeBSD Unix.

I am currently running SpamAssassin through procmail for individual users. 

Their .forward files have the command:
"|exec /usr/local/bin/procmail || exit 75"

Their .procmailrc files have the command:
:0fw: spamassassin.lock
* < 256000
| spamassassin

This seems to work OK, but I'm not sure it is an efficient setup. Right now
I have 20-30 users on SpamAssassin this way in a corporate environment.
Soon, I'll have more (eventually up to about 180 max). Should I be using
spamd? And, if so, do I start that the same way in the procmailrc file? I
tried to setup procmail as the default MTA, but I am not sure I have all the
debug yet, so I am still using the indivial .forward and .procmailrc files. 

Also, I have SpamAssassin 2.55. I see a lot more spam has found it's way
through the last week or so. Is there an evolving set of rules that deal
with this that I should be updating? If so, where do I find it, or do I just
update SA when the next release comes out?

Last question, can I send a user's /var/mail/username file through procmail
and spamassassin once it is already created (for exmaple for a user that
wasn't using the .forward file and SpamAssassin before that I want to filter
on an impromtu-basis)?

Thanks for the help! I really appreciate all the efforts of all you
tech-studs!
