SA temp dir ...

[Greyhair]

you could edit the configure file in the spamassassin source
from the 2.55 source:

     # Create a (secure) tmp directory for tmp files.
     : ${TMPDIR=/tmp}
     {
     tmp=`(umask 077 && mktemp -d -q "$TMPDIR/csXXXXXX") 2>/dev/null` &&
     test -n "$tmp" && test -d "$tmp"

you could change the TMPDIR line to the directory you want. Make sure your
permissions are 100% correct!!  Then recompile.  Is it worth it?
