I have upgraded from 2.64 to 3.0.0 using CPAN. All has gone well, and spamd can be started:
ultra:/etc/mail/spamassassin # /etc/init.d/spamd start Starting spamd done The logs confirm that this was successful: ultra:/var/log # tail -n 200 mail.info [...] Sep 23 00:49:48 ultra spamd[4808]: server started on port 783/tcp (running version 3.0.0) ps aux confirms that the daemon is running: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ps aux | grep spamd root 4808 1.5 5.7 26212 21976 ?

However, no SpamAssassin headers or tags were added, and the email remained unaltered. A file size comparison to confirm this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Mail/junk/cur> ls -l total 8 -rw------- 1 anthony users 2184 2004-09-22 23:49 1095894767.4440_1.ultra:2,S -rw-r--r-- 1 anthony users 2184 2004-09-23 01:01 test This is preventing the use of SpamAssassin to filter mail, of course. What is needed to get SpamAssassin to add its usual tags and headers, as before? TIA. -- Anthony Edwards [EMAIL PROTECTED]
