The only place I can make changes is desktop. So is there a way to use the
local.cf file from desktop?

Sure. I want to see the results for different threshold values. Default is
5.0. My teacher asked me to show the results for different threshold values.
I am trying this on the machines in the university. So they only gave me
student rights.:)

Cool.

So basically you're running a test message through SA. Make a subdirectory under your home directory (do you have command line access?) and copy all of the files from /etc/mail/spamassassin there, then you can use the command I use for my testing:

  spamassassin -L -t --siteconfigpath `pwd` --debug area=all,rules <spam.msg >result 
2>&1 && less result

Omit the -L if you want to include network tests.

Since the config files used by this are in your directory, you can change whatever you like.
