Mailscanner - Spamassassin Issue

[Shawn Iverson]

Toby,

Are you executing spamassassin in the same way that MailScanner calls
spamassassin?

In other words...assuming MailScanner is running as postfix...something
like this....

sudo su postfix -p -c "spamassassin -t -d -C /etc/MailScanner/spamassassin.conf
< somespamemail"

This may shed some insight.
