SpamAssassin Temporary Files

Hi,

I am attempting to tune our MailScanner/SpamAssassin implementation, and have created a 256MB tmpfs for the bayes databases and incoming work area.
What would be good is if a configuration item could be added to MailScanner for the SpamAssassin TMPDIR variable.  I have harded coded it at the moment  in the MailScanner perl script with :-

$ENV{TMPDIR}="/var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin"; # Write Temp Files to TMPFS

And that does appear to speed things up quite nicely.  I have FuzzyOCR running aswell so this now inherits the TMPDIR path aswell.

What do you think ?

Cheers,
