I only have the .procmailrc file in use. I'm using the example .procmailrc file from the example and the .spamassassin/user_prefs from the docs in /usr/share/spamassassin/ from my redhat and spamassassin.org rpm install. I'm not using the .forward try removing that and see what happens. On Mon, 7 Jul 2003, Bill Mills-Curran wrote:
I have successfully set up spamassassin on my Red Hat 8 box but I thought I'd try to install a new version so I could use the Bayesian filters.
**************** Old version:
After installing the rpm, all I needed was a .forward file:
"| /usr/bin/spamassassin || exit 75"
and I also needed to add a sym link to spamassassin in the /etc/smrsh directory. It worked fine.
**************** New version 2.44 and 2.55 (I got the 2.44 from Red Hat 9, I got the 2.55 from the spamassassin web site):
My email just disappears, but there are some words about needing to use procmail to invoke spamassassin. So, I changed my .forward:
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #bcurran"
And, I added a .procmailrc:
:0fw: spamassassin.lock | /usr/bin/spamassassin
I added /usr/bin/procmail symlink to /etc/smrsh.
I get messages in /var/log/maillog like this:

****************
My best guess is that the .forward file isn't right, and I'm haven't been a procmail user, so I'm not at all sure what it needs. I got the .forward contents from the spamassassin docs.
Any ideas what I need to do?
TIA, Bill
