-x on spamd disables per user "user_prefs".

-x on spamc disables the safe fallback option which feeds through email
that fails scanning or takes too long for scanning.

Which do you want? You have denied user_prefs as you have it below.

And remember, "man" is your friend as in "man spamd" and "man spamc".

Dear Sirs,

So is the option-x is in spamassassin.rc:

#!/bin/sh
# spamassassin This script starts and stops the spamd daemon
#

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
case "$1" in
 start)
       cd /

/usr/bin/spamd -v -u vpopmail -m 5 -x -q -s stderr -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid \
       -i 172.16.10.20  -A 172.16.10.0/24 2>&1 | \
       /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill \
       /usr/local/bin/multilog t !spamdappend /var/log/qmail/spamd &
       echo "spamd started"
       ;;

 stop)
       if [ -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid ]; then
         pid=`cat /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid`
         kill $pid || ( echo "failed to stop spamd" && exit 1 )
         echo "spamd (pid $pid) stopped"
       else
         echo "/var/run/spamd/spamd.pid doesn't exist, is spamd running?"
       fi
       ;;

 restart)
       $0 stop && sleep 2 &&  $0 start
       ;;

 *)
       echo "usage: spamassassin.rc (start|stop|restart)"
       ;;
esac

I configured Simscan with these options:

./configure --enable-clamav=y --enable-clamdscan=/usr/local/bin/clamdscan --enable-dropmsg=y --enable-custom-smtp-reject=n --enable-per-domain=y --enable-attach=y --enable-spam=y --enable-ripmime=/usr/local/bin/ripmime --enable-received=y --enable-spam-hits=5.0 --enable-spamc=/usr/bin/spamc --enable-spamc-args=-s 200000 -t 60 -d 172.16.10.20 --enable-spamc-user=y --enable-regex=y --with-pcre-include=/usr/local/include --enable-quarantinedir

Thanks

Jose Luis

I believe the OP put the -x in the spamd command line, not the spamc
command line...
