mkdir permission problem with SpamAssassin

Hi,

I've installed MS 3.23-5 on a Trustix 1.5/Perl 5.6.1/Exim box and have
it running fine. I then installed SpamAssassin 2.42 from source using
the instructions on the MS website. After re-adjusting mailscanner.conf
to use SA and restarting MS, I get:

mkdir /no: Permission denied at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 827

Why is SA trying to make a directory under / ? SM runs as user/group
exim/exim.

Is there some config adjustment I need to make to SA or SM?

Thanks,
Stephen
