Hi John I quite sure that the script is running and the variable in $DOMAIN and $SPAM are correct ( I defined it early in the script, which are not shown here) because the I got a copy for each them in $DIRCOLLECTSPAM and nothing in the learning folder, /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/cur/*

Well, if you're running the script from cron, stdout and stderr should automatically be emailed to the owner of the cron job - unless you are explicitly redirecting that output. > I using the follow script to do training, > > cd /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/cur > /usr/bin/sa-learn --spam ./* > cp -a /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/cur/* $DIRCOLLECTSPAM > rm -rf /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/cur/* > cd /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/new > /usr/bin/sa-learn --spam ./* > cp -a /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/new/* $DIRCOLLECTSPAM > rm -rf /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/new/* Do you see a report of how many messages were seen and how many were learned from when you run that interactively? You should see the same output in email from the cron job. Question: what sets $DOMAIN and $SPAM for the cron job? Remember, cron scripts start out with an empty environment. The cron job may not be learning anything because the directory paths are screwed up due to $DOMAIN and/or $SPAM not being set. It's a good idea to do something like this for dynamic paths: if ! cd "/home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/cur" then echo "Could not cd to /home/vpopmail/domains/$DOMAIN/$SPAM/Maildir/cur" exit 1 fi > I also do the same for the HAM using the same script which section is > not shown here . Good. You might want to add this to the end of your script to get bayes database stats afterward: /usr/bin/sa-learn --dump magic -- John Hardin KA7OHZ http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] FALaholic #11174 pgpk -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] key: 0xB8732E79 -- 2D8C 34F4 6411 F507 136C AF76 D822 E6E6 B873 2E79 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Where We Want You To Go Today 07/05/07: Microsoft patents in-OS adware architecture incorporating spyware, profiling, competitor suppression and delivery confirmation (U.S. Patent #20070157227) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 days until SWMBO's Birthday
