The spam levels are getting high again, users are complaining, and so
today I did an apt-get spamassassin to upgrade to version 3.1.0. I
then used the configuration tool at
http://www.yrex.com/spam/spamconfig.php to create a new local.cf and
replaced the old one, which was outdated even for our previous
version. Now however, when I try to start he spamassassin daemon I
get the message: SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: disabled, see
/etc/default/spamassassin and I'm really not sure what's wrong there.
So what does /etc/default/spamassassin look like? My guess is this file is a
debian-specific file that configures the startup script, and it's probably set
to disable spamd. However, I'm not a debian user, so it's a guess, but it would
be helpful to see what's there.
Yes, Matt is right. There is a line that says 'ENABLED=0'. Change that
0 to 1 and it will work. You can also set options such as max-children
in this file.
