Hi Sg,
Ummmmm if you are using CentOS just do this
Backup your /etc/mail/spamassassin directory and all of it's file contents,
mainly for safety and good admin work protection
Then if you have not setup your rpm workspace in your main non root account
do this
cd
mkdir -m 755 rpm
cd rpm
mkdir -m 755 BUILD RPMS SOURCES SPECS SRPMS
then go back to your home directory and create a file called .rpmmacros
mine looks something like this for the rtst shell account
%_topdir /home/rtst/rpm
%packager RTst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Then goto your rpm directory and then get the sources
cd
cd rpm
wget
http://apache.oregonstate.edu/spamassassin/source/Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.3.ta
r.gz
then
rpmbuild -tb Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.3.tar.gz
then (as the super user) goto the RPMS/i386 directory and install
rpm -Uvh perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.3-1.i386.rpm
spamassassin-3.2.3-1.i386.rpm
and when done make sure to update with
sa-update -D
or if another distro or need other hints check out this page for other info

have a good night
