Thanks for the reply, John. I believe there is a problem with more than one perl5/Mail dir hanging around on the system, which I will be addressing shortly - not that this should be an issue, SA is configured to read one config directory, not two.. > You may have two different copies of SA installed, and one is bad. > This can happen if you install SA from a distro package and then later > attempt to install or upgrade from CPAN (or vice versa). I'd say you've hit the nail on the head. I recently did an upgrade from "dpkg -i" at the previous admin's recommendation. Methinks the method used to install the original SA was different.. probably compiled, though, instead of CPAN. > Those are Perl language options; you shouldn't be fiddling around with > that stuff unless you're an SA developer or you want to modify SA > itself (as opposed to just creating rules or doing other common > administrative tasks). Ok. That I can understand. Thank-you very much for your response, John. I now have a plan for the weekend to knock out SA completely and re-install it after backup of Config and Bayes data. Thanks again! Cheers, Michael.
