The sa-update channels allow you to check for new rulesets more often than once a day, so you can get newly released rulesets a little faster. Of course the SARE rules aren't really updated that often so this may not be a big advantage for you.



So the signature is good but it's not trusted? OK. But the "channel failed" message bothers me a bit. It says the file was downloaded, but I don't find it. Help please... - John

Luke:/usr/share/spamassassin# sa-update --channelfile /usr/share/spamassassin/channels.txt -D


You're missing something to tell sa-update to trust the GPG key for the channels you're using. Adding --gpgkey 856AA88A to your sa-update command line would work.

I'd also save your channel file somewhere else. Anything in /usr/share/spamassassin will be deleted when you upgrade SA. I'd put it in /etc/mail/spamassassin or the home directory of the user running sa-update or somewhere else that it's not going to get deleted automatically or accidentally.


Thanks - I had that earlier when something else was wrong, and then it got left out earlier! I still don't completely understand
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/updates_spamassassin_org
and
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/updates_spamassassin_org.cf

The first directory above doesn't have the requested SARE file in it, but the updates_spamassassin_org.cf has the includes line for the SARE file.

If the update_spamassassin_org.cf file has anything but a version line and include lines that point at updates_spamassassin_org/*.cf you've come across a bug. If this is the case, please send me a copy of the updates_spamassassin_org.cf file.


What am I missing? IOW, where should I find the updated/downloaded SARE file from dostech? I expected there to be a dostech_net directory after the sa-update run...?

You should have something like a 70_sare_stocks_cf_sare_sa-update_dostech_net directory and a 70_sare_stocks_cf_sare_sa-update_dostech_net.cf file for each channel.

YES! I have it working. Duh, I didn't see the appropriate directories and files because I needed to REFRESH my WinSCP window!!! Guess that's what I get for working from Windows! NO BUG - The update_spamassassin_org.cf file is OK!

Thanks again Daryl for your patience!  - John
