Looking through [url]http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/SpamAssassin_on_Mac_OS_X_Server[/url] , I decided that it was a good idea to update the vanilla install of SpamAssassin (3.0.1) to the latest release (3.1.x), so I used the
[CODE] sudo cpan -i Mail::SpamAssassin[/CODE]
as instructed by the Apache Wiki and let it do a standard install…

…Unfortunately, it seems to have created a parallel installation of SpamAssassin, which draws from /Users/$username/.spamassassin/ rather than /var/amasvis/.spamassassin/ ; /var/clamav/.spamassassin is a sym link to /var/amasvis/.spamassassin/

[b]As a result, SA ignores it’s training and only about 2% of spam is being flagged.[/b] (Down from ~70%.)

Neither the /etc/mail/spamasssassin/local.cf nor the /etc/amasvid.conf file appear to have changed from my last modification — nor do any changes to them have any effect.

Since I can’t even find where the bad settings are, I can’t begin to fix this.

[i]/usr/bin/spamassassin -V[/i] returns:
[code]SpamAssassin version 3.0.1
running on Perl version 5.8.6[/code]

running
[i]sudo -u clamav sa-learn –showdots –spam /var/spool/imap/user/$spamfolder/*[/i]
does nothing…

running
[i]sudo sa-learn –showdots –spam /var/spool/imap/user/$spamfolder/*[/i]
seems to work, except there’s a random error that shows up in the middle of the dots:
[code]Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.8.6/Mail/SpamAssassin/Message.pm line 225.[/code]

The /var/amavis/.spamassassin/ directory looks like:
[code]-rw——- 1 clamav clamav 1318912 Jan 24 12:29 auto-whitelist
-rw——- 1 clamav clamav 168 Jan 24 12:29 bayes_journal

Any help would be greatly appreciated…
