Yes, I'm sorry, I should have made it more clear that I understood
that. It correctly instantiates the new SA instance:
my $spamtest = Mail::SpamAssassin->new();
then logs in, opens the mbox folder, reads it in, then just sits there
with the check($mail) function, which must be deep enough in the SA
code that I'm not familiar with it and hoped someone had some ideas.
This is for v3.3.2. I thought Kris was using this script regularly,
and I have a production implementation of SA on this box, so I don't
understand why it would be failing here.
Thanks,
Alex
