I'm not talking about editing the script. I am talking about the config file. Do you have /etc/mail/rulesdujour/config ?


Yes, I know that.

When I originally posted, I had nothing there, and the default value produced is /etc/spamassassin -- that's what I want. I explicitly defined /etc/spamassassin, but that doesn't change anything, because the rules_du_jour script is hard-coded, as quoted, to deliver to the RulesDuJour subdirectory below whatever SA_DIR has been set to. Even if I set SA_DIR to something to something totally unrelated (say, /home/testuser), the target would still be /home/testuser/RulesDuJour .

At this point, RDJ is doing exactly what it's supposed to, and so my difficulty is simply in getting SA to read what's been produced. RDJ obviously assumes that SA will read from a subdirectory from the specified location, but my installation isn't doing that.

I don't think this is true.

I have stopped using RDJ and now use the SA-update channels. But when I was using RDJ, I am sure that the script downloads to its TMPDIR and runs some sanity checks, then copies the files into the SA directory.

Try running RDJ manually with debugging switched on.
