Hi,

So after playing with the suggestion below, and changing the command a 
little bit i now definatley have two different behaviours.

Running the commands :-
1.    spamassassin -D -t Testy.eml

consistantly gives me a full scan and result set and ends (before 
reporting the score) with :-

Jun  7 20:14:41.072 [21537] dbg: check: is spam? score=8.997 required=5
Jun  7 20:14:41.072 [21537] dbg: check: 
tests=BAYES_99,BAYES_999,DIGEST_MULTIPLE,HTML_MESSAGE,PYZOR_CHECK,RAZOR2_CF_RANGE_51_100,RAZOR2_CHECK,RDNS_NONE,T_REMOTE_IMAGE
Jun  7 20:14:41.073 [21537] dbg: check: 
subtests=__ANY_TEXT_ATTACH,__ANY_TEXT_ATTACH_DOC,__BODY_TEXT_LINE,__BODY_TEXT_LINE,__BODY_TEXT_LINE,__CAN_HELP,__CT,__CTYPE_HAS_BOUNDARY,__CTYPE_MULTIPART_ALT,__CTYPE_MULTIPART_ANY,__DKIM_DEPENDABLE,__DOS_DIRECT_TO_MX,__DOS_HAS_ANY_URI,__DOS_RCVD_MON,__DOS_SINGLE_EXT_RELAY,__HAS_ANY_URI,__HAS_DATE,__HAS_FROM,__HAS_MESSAGE_ID,__HAS_MSGID,__HAS_RCVD,__HAS_SUBJECT,__HAS_TO,__HAS_URI,__HTML_LINK_IMAGE,__KHOP_NO_FULL_NAME,__LAST_EXTERNAL_RELAY_NO_AUTH,__LAST_UNTRUSTED_RELAY_NO_AUTH,__LOCAL_PP_NONPPURL,__MIME_HTML,__MIME_VERSION,__MISSING_REF,__MISSING_REPLY,__MSGID_OK_HOST,__NONEMPTY_BODY,__RDNS_NONE,__REMOTE_IMAGE,__SANE_MSGID,__TAG_EXISTS_BODY,__TAG_EXISTS_HEAD,__TAG_EXISTS_HTML,__TAG_EXISTS_META,__TOCC_EXISTS,__TVD_MIME_ATT_TP

36381 (78.6%), expire_bayes: 36225 (78.2%), tests_pri_0: 3647 (7.9%), 
check_spf: 161 (0.3%), dkim_load_modules: 106 (0.2%), 
check_dkim_signature: 2.5 (0.0%), check_dkim_adsp: 126 (0.3%), 
poll_dns_idle: 0.80 (0.0%), check_razor2: 1416 (3.1%), check_pyzor: 284 
(0.6%), tests_pri_500: 331 (0.7%)

Running the commands
1.    sudo su postfix -p -c "spamassassin -D -t -C 
/etc/MailScanner/spamassassin.conf < Testy.eml"  - in the dbg statements 
for this command, there are some warnings about permission
2.    sudo -u postfix spamassassin -D -t -C 
/etc/MailScanner/spamassassin.conf Testy.eml
3.    spamassassin -D -t -C /etc/MailScanner/spamassassin.conf Testy.eml
Seems to start spamassassin, but it finishes way way sooner than the 
successful command, it stops very early on in the dbg, and gives a 
message saying "(no Report template found)

the above 3 commands all end up with
Jun  7 20:23:20.745 [21665] dbg: check: is spam? score=0 required=5
Jun  7 20:23:20.746 [21665] dbg: check: tests=
Jun  7 20:23:20.746 [21665] dbg: check: subtests=
Jun  7 20:23:20.747 [21665] dbg: timing: total 796 ms - init: 696 
(87.5%), parse: 6 (0.7%), extract_message_metadata: 62 (7.8%), 
get_uri_detail_list: 24 (3.0%), tests_pri_0: 21 (2.6%), compile_gen: 4.3 
(0.5%)

There are plenty of other difference betweent the two reports.

Still very little idea of what i am doing with this, so help is still 
very much appreciated!

regards

Toby
