I have this on my spam.assassin.prefs.conf:

 

bayes_path /var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin/bayes

bayes_file_mode 0660

 

 

Thanks,

it's probably trying to create the bayes DB there, so make sure your
bayes_path is forced somewhere sensible in the MailScanner.cf

Hey Guys,

 

Anybody knows how to deal with this with  MailScanner?

My research tells me that I need to remove the per-user config of
SpamAssassin which I did by adding  "-x" option in the
/etc/sysconfig/spamassassin.

But still no changes.

 

 

 

Thanks,
