I have it working. It took some tweaking, but finally I have it working.

A couple things to look at...

Let's say your "low" spam score is 5 and your "high" spam score is 8.
There is a default setting in FuzzyOcr.cf that says "if the score is
already (10) then don't even bother scanning it." -- this (10) was
keeping me from scanning messages. I pushed that up to 30 during my
testing just so I could watch the functionality.

I assume you have the MailWatch gui running? If so, does IT see the
fuzzy ocr tests if you have it perform the spamassassin lint test?
(you would see debug messages and several of them)

I followed the instructions (forget where they are without looking)
and they were close, it required (if I remember correctly) a couple
extra permissions changes here and there.

When you run your test message, make sure you run the test scripts as
user postfix.

e.g.

su - postfix -s /bin/bash
spamassassin -t < message_file

Also, the sample messages that ship with the Fuzzy OCR distro work as well.
