Some follow on information.... I expected all of the details to be
in mail.log and didn't think to check syslog. :-( More details

Obviously I have a permissions issue. Now I need to understand why
it's trying to use /var/spool/postfix for .pyzor instead of
/var/spool/MailScanner.<br class="">
<br class="">
I also clicked around more and found the archive search mechanism.<br class="">
<br class="">
Words of wisdom appreciated.<br class="">

Apologies if this has been asked before, but while I found the
list archive, I couldn't find a means to search it and considering
it goes back many years, scanning by hand seemed a bit
overwhelming. If there's a search capability for it that I've
missed, please let me know.

Anyway, I have a new server I've setup to be a spam filter
gateway. It's a clean install of Debian Jessie with MailScanner
and Postfix with what I believe to be the latest versions.
Generally, the system is working, but I'm still getting much more
spam than I should be. Reviewing the logs, I can see that I'm
getting relatively low spam scores even on what I'd consider
obvious spam emails.
<br class="">
<br class="">
This lead me down the path of what else could be done with
spamassassin, which got me to Pyzor, Razor and DCC. At the
moment, DCC isn't installed. I guess it was removed from the
repository because it's non-free? Pyzor and Razor are installed,
and somehow, I think I have Razor working, at least based on the
fact that I see log entries like this one:

I'm not sure Pyzor is working though, and when I run MailScanner
--lint, I get this:

I've googled ad nauseum and I'm getting nowhere.

In spam.assassin.prefs.conf, I have:

and permissions on that folder seem OK
