Hi. I'm having a strange issue with SA not reading its configueration file (not in /etc/spamassassin/local.cf nor in ~/.spamassasin/user_prefs) , I searched the forums and most of what I found was related to SA + Amavis + postfix.

I dont have amavis installed, I modified postfix's master.cf file to the following:

Code:

smtp      inet  n       -       n       -       -       smtpd -o content_filter=spamassassin

.....

spamassassin
          unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
             user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient}



and I have started spamd, from looking at the logs, all is good, mail comes thru postfix which hands it in to SA and then postfix pipes it to procmail.

the problem is, if I edit the local.cf file for SA, the changes don't seem to make any effect (I did restart spamd afterwards).
what I'm guessing is the way I'm calling it from within master.cf but I'm not sure :?
The other way I noticed there was a problem is when I installed dcc, I noticed that SA doesnt use it even though I have (use_dcc 1) in the config file, but if I do the following:
Code:
 spamassassin -D < message

It works fine (it uses DCC)...
anybody has any clues on what the problem might be?

bump anyone? :(
someone out there must be using postfix + SA without amavis....
almost all the spam is getting thru with SA 3.x and I heard dcc can help lower that percentage...
I followed the guide on SA's website to use it with postfix.
