Since reading this thread, I've started using sa-learn regularly. I run spamd (as root), so I have made sure I run all my sa-learn invocations as root, and the bayes files are being updated in ~root/.spamassassin/bayes_* It's not clear to me from the spamd manpage if spamd it will use these files or not. If it does, then my procedure should be fine. Can anyone confirm if spamd run as root does use the .spamassassin file's in roots homedir when it starts up? Thanks, Ben
