Assumption Verified. Setting this does not fix the problem.

Upon reading the docs in the MailScanner.conf file, it's redundant to set this.
It was worth a shot.

The only reason one should ever need to use this option would be to force MS's
copy of SA to use a *different* directory than the command line uses.

I want my mailscanner to behave more like the spamassassin command-line, not
less like it.


So, Julian, or anyone else "deep in the know", does MS invoke SA's config parser
in some strange way that might limit the number of rules or number of files it
can parse?
