Matt, following your advise that I had something configured wrong and not
standard, I removed and reinstalled SA and got a bit further. However no
matter what, I get the following errors for root when I send an email to
myself which has nothing to do for root. I even created a user for SA as
such:
groupadd -g 5001 spamd
useradd -u 5001 -g spamd -s /sbin/nologin -d /var/lib/spamassassin spamd
mkdir /var/lib/spamassassin
chown spamd:spamd /var/lib/spamassassin
And are running with the following options:
OPTIONS="--create-prefs --max-children 5 --username spamd --helper-home-dir
${SAHOME} -s /var/log/spamd.log"
PIDFILE="${SAHOME}spamd.pid"
LOG.....

I do get the email in my mailbox, but why is it referring to root?
