It should work if you have full internet DNS access, some networks behind proxies only have local DNS. If in doubt try this: $ dig +short mirrors.updates.spamassassin.org txt "http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/MIRRORED.BY"; Also try running sa-update -D for more information > I tried the following ways : > > > 1- I set on my /etc/bash.bashrc > > export HTTP_PROXY=http://myserver:myport/ > export FTP_PROXY=http://myserver:myport/ > > Another way: > > 2- I set on my > > alias sa-update='env http_proxy=http://myserver:myport/ > https_proxy=http://myserver:myport/ sa-update' IIRC it uses curl, wget or fetch if it finds one of them, and will fall-back to perl. I'm guessing there's a reason for not preferring perl. I think curl and wget use the lower-case versions and fetch prefers upper-case, but should fall-back to lower.
