Check http://www.spamassassin.org/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html#privileged%20settings specifically the allow_user_rules setting. If you don't allow user_prefs rules, then no spamd/spamc execution will use them.

The only flags to spamd are -d and -L, DE> so I don't see a problem there. user_prefs is referenced (when spamd/spamc is working properly) for score adjustments, parameter settings (bayes on/off), blacklists, and whitelists. Rules defined in user_prefs are ignored, however, unless a) allow_user_rules is turned on, or b) you run SA directly as that user, not through spamd/spamc Bob Menschel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
