bigevil usage... confused

[Jeff A. Earickson]

Gang,
   I've been following the "bigevil.cf" thread...  I
downloaded it and put it into /etc/mail/spamassassin,
then did

spamassassin -D -p /opt/MailScanner/etc/spam.assassin.prefs.conf --lint

and saw:

debug: using "/opt/perl5/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir
debug: using "/etc/opt/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir
debug: using "/home/admin/jaearick/.spamassassin" for user state dir
debug: using "/opt/MailScanner/etc/spam.assassin.prefs.conf" for user prefs file

with *no* reference to bigevil.cf anywhere in the output.

Hmmm...  I looked in /etc/opt/mail/spamassassin and found another
local.cf file.  So I blew away this directory and made a symlink for
this dir pointing to /etc/mail/spamassassin.  This directory contains
a symlink for local.cf, which points to
/opt/MailScanner/etc/spam.assassin.prefs.conf

Tried the lint run again, still no reference to bigevil.cf in the output.
Should I see one?  What have I snarled up here?  How to see if bigevil
is getting used (no references to BigEvilList in the SA syslogging
either).  Help.
