I see, so I must pass -C to spamd, not -c to spamc? <snip from wiki> a.. Another handy option to take care of this is to pass spamd the -H option with /etc/mail/spamassassin as the argument. This sets all helper apps' (dccproc/pyzor/razor) homedirs to /etc/mail/spamassassin.
Where do I put the -H option, where is the config file or what is it called? <snip from wiki> a.. Make sure anywhere you're calling spamassassin in a script/procmail recipe/.qmail file to always use the -C /etc/mail/spamassassin configuration option so it will pick up the razor_config option, and in turn the razorhome setting in razor-agent.conf Again, how and where? Is THIS refering to spamc, and if so, should it actually read as -c not -C? DCC is complaining about it's map file, but Im going to disable that as I don't quite understand how and why it works, abd don't need it. I want to use http://www.spamhaus.org/ SBL and XBL but have not worked out if I do that via SA or qmail. Many Thanks, Justin Fielding, Intelliweb Ltd UK.
