Dear all, I need your help again about the spamc error.

I tell you I'm not using procmail.

In my /etc/default/spamassassin I have this lines:

ENABLED=1
OPTIONS="--create-prefs --socketpath -U amavis --max-children 5
--helper-home-dir"
PIDFILE="/var/run/spamd.pid"

If I define the listen IP and port:

OPTIONS="--create-prefs --socketpath -U amavis --max-children 5
--helper-home-dir --listen-ip=localhost --port=783"

The spamc connects OK to port TCP/783 but I can't use the amavis tag
features I used before. This situation shows me that the problem is between
amavisd-new and spamassassin. And I repeat: I've never open port TCP/783
from spamassassin before and the anti spam worked fine.

Can you help me please ???

Thanks a lot

Alejandro
