Okay After the input from everyone here is what I found out.
MY white/black lists would not work in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf in any way shape or form. I tried putting them into the users_prefs file everywhere it may have wanted it. I tried putting them in 60_whitelist.cf and when I did spamassassin -D --lint it just reported all kinds of errors and everyone of them was one of my entries. So I tried Hannu's suggestion and made two new files with the rest of the configs and called them 50_whitelist.cf and 50_blacklist.cf and it worked. I'm not sure where the problem is but now it seems to be working okay. thanks to everyone steve -----Original Message----- From: Colin A.

Do you mean that is just skips the whitelist config settings? One thing you can do is run spamd with the -D option and view the debug output. It will tell you what it's doing with the message as it processes it. Maybe that will help or maybe you can paste the output here. cheers, Colin Colin A.

My whitelist is not working no matter where I put it. The /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf file is working because I can change the score value and it reads the changes. BUT, if I put my black/white list entries in that file or any other file in the SA directories it will not work. None of the entries are read. It was working but not now. It's the only thing not working that I can tell. steve -----Original Message----- From: Kai Schaetzl [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 5:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SAtalk] Question about whitelist NOT AWL Stephen Bradley wrote on Wed, 8 Oct 2003 16:06:14 -0400: > I use spamd/spamc and I know it reads the /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf > Just put all stuff in that directory! sa/spamd reads all files in there.
