spamc is what Qmail Scanner invokes. Is there a separate configuration
for spamc / spamd to spamassassin? I thought not...
It sounds like you have the spamd bayes database, and then you have the
database for whatever user you're actually running the test from. I
ran into this problem as well - it's a known issue, and I wish the SA
folks would come up with a way to run, as root, sa-learn for a NON-ROOT
bayes database. Vpopmail directories aren't readable by spamd.
One possible fix is to look in /root/.spamassassin and check the bayes
information there against /home/spamd/.spamassassin (or whatever the
home directory is for the user that's running spamd for Qmail Scanner)
(It SHOULD be possible to make it so that a cron job could run a
sa-learn -u spamd variation for learning stuff in directories unreadable
by the 'spamd' user)
