Hi,
I've been trying to install spamassassin for a week or so now and I think
I
finally have an idea of where the problem is, but not what it is and how
to
fix it.
When I start spamd with the -C command-line option spamassassin will not
correctly identify the GTUBE message as spam. But if I start spamassassin
without the -C command-line option it will correctly identify GTUBE as
spam.
The odd thing about this is that aside from init.pre, everything else in
my
-C directory is essentially empty. All of the lines in local.cf and
secrets.cf are commented.
I installed Spamassassin 3.0 on Gentoo using the portage version of the
software.
...
I could run spamassassin without using local.cf, but I would like to
change
some of the options. In my tests, it doesn't matter what the contents of
local.cf are. If you use "-C" spamassassin will fail to identify mail as
spam.
To clarify what I mean by fail, I run the sample spam message through
spamc
and the message comes through with a X-Spam-Checker-Version header but
does
not come through with an X-Spam-Status header.
Without the "-C" option it comes through as it should.
Does anyone have experience with or insight into this problem?
Thanks,
Leonard
1) What is the full file name and path following "-C " on the spamd
command line?
2) What are the permissions of that directory and the files within it?
3) Who are you running spamd as?
4) Are there differences in the above data such as running as nobody
but the files and directory for your configuration are root?
