Hi Julian,

# The SpamAssassin cache uses a database file which needs to be writable
# by the MailScanner "Run As User". This file will be created and setup for
# you automatically when MailScanner is started.
SpamAssassin Cache Database File = /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin.cache.db

Can you tell a littme more about this?

What is stored, will the database be auto pruned? Or does it grow till my 
disk fills :)

I am really interested in this since we use rcpts splitting, on what base 
you say its a identical message?

Bye,
Raymond.
