Regardless, you need to run SA as a user. To get your basics
tested, su into that user and test SA. Once you test as the
user you can setup your system wide prefs with a basic one
for the user and your system wide for your actual
preferences.

I don't know about MIMEDefang, does it use spamd/spamc
combo? If so then you want to run spamd with the no user
prefs switch.
