Hi, I've made some progress, but it's still not working :(
Procmail is now running spamc, but the maillog shows the error: Jan 7 15:51:36 srv01 spamd[1314]: connection from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] at port 34674 Jan 7 15:51:36 srv01 spamd[1314]: info: setuid to root succeeded Jan 7 15:51:36 srv01 spamd[1314]: Still running as root: user not specified with -u, not found, or set to root. Fall back to nobody.

Am I missing a parameter? Is there anything else I may have overlooked?

I thought that was why the -u flag was used with spamassassin? But, having seen your .procmailrc file, it appears that this is unneccessary. Any other suggestions? I'm at my wits end with this, and I'm suffering from a deluge of spam! mil
