MailScanner 4.50.15 not picking up new rules from sa-update

[Adri Koppes]

Martin, 

Using MailScanner 4.50.15 from www.freebsd.ord/ports.
SpamAssassin 3.1.1 from www.freebsd.org/ports.

Which setting should I look for in MailScanner.conf or SA.pm for setting
the SpamAssassin LOCAL_STATE_DIR?

Adri.
