If someone wants to > look at it, and figure out how to make that work I prefer to have all the SpamAssassin plugins grouped together where the default install puts them. This is in the directory: /usr/local/libdata/perl5/site_perl/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/ on my OpenBSD boxes. So I altered Botnet.pm so the line: package Botnet; now reads: package Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Botnet; and placed it in the above directory. The line: loadplugin Botnet Botnet.pm in /etc/mail/spamassassin/Botnet.cf was altered to: loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Botnet It works a treat. I did something similar for the FuzzyOcr.pm plugin. > (but still have the files located in /etc/mail/spamassassin) I > would happily incorporate it. Well, you *could* do this with soft links.
