You don't say which MTA you're using.  If you use an MTA that runs as a
user other than root make sure that user has a real home directory (SA
writes into the home directory of the user that calls it).

How did you install SA?  tar/ rpm / CPAN?

If you did it any other way than from the tarball uninstall and build
the tarball.  Make sure make test works (warning, it takes forever!) -
don't worry if the spamd tests fail.

Make sure SA works from the command line  (spamassassin -D --lint)
Make sure SA works from the command line using the MailScanner
spam.assassin.prefs.conf file (spamassassin -D --lint
--config-file=/etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf)
If you're running your MTA as another user su to that user and try the
command above again.
