SV: Local State Dir - /var/lib/spamassassin - SARE rules no hits

[Daniel Flensburg]

The bayes sa-learn error is "solved". For some reason the spam.assassin.prefs.conf was now empty. I copied the file from the old Mailscanner-setup. Maybe new settings is not there, but I have to figure that out later. I wonder what happened?

Dan

it's using the apache user's home dir for the bayes db...check you've
got perms correct so the apache user can see t he mailscanner setup
files.
