Hello, all 
 I run "spamassasin -D --lint" on Cobalt server 550 with Spamassasin+Mailscanner

I had following errors. Should install these packages?

The commands  are...

spamassassin -D --lint

and

spamassassin -D --lint
--config-file=/etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf

[Please note that the line wrapped in the second example above, you should type
it all on one line]

The -D option indicates Debug (so you get verbose output)  --lint tells
spamassassin to check the configuration files are sane (you'll get error
messages if they are not).  In the second example we also tell it to use the
spamassassin config that MailScanner uses.  The idea is to check that
SpamAssassin is working okay (first command) then check that it hasn't been
broken by something in the MailScanner config (second command).

spamd has nothing to do with it.  MailScanner doesn't use spamd, it calls the SA
API directly - which is better.

Possibly, the whole line would have been nice!  Presumably this is being logged
by a sendmail process?  possibly a sign that sendmail isn't listening on the
loopback interface.  You can find out by doing...

netstat -an | grep :25

If you get a line that looks line this...
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25              0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN

[sorry it wrapped again - but you get the idea?] ...then that is not your
problem, however if the first 0.0.0.0 is an ip address of one of your interfaces
then it is.

IIRC RedHat's sendmail by default listens only on 127.0.0.1, maybe someone has
changed this to an IP of an external interface?
