SA question, and yes, I've checked the SA wiki.

Greetings;

I just updated my SA install to 3.0.2.  That involved figureing out 
what was wrong with the original /etc/sysconfig/spamassassin files as 
it had an old option -a in it.  Then I thought I had it going, until 
I looked at the /var/log/maillog, and this falls out for every 
message handled:
-------------------------

------------------------------
when I started the upgrade, and after, I had 
a /root/.spamassassin/bayes_journal file, but it dissappeared at some 
point after I had inspected it with less.

So I touched another one and set the mode to 0666 and the owner to 
nobody:nobody which it indicates its running as in the above log 
snip.  The daemon won't even start if I set the "-u root" in the 
option string.

Back at SA-2.64, root owned all that stuff, so I'm puzzled as to why 
the nearly 2700 byte "bayes_journal" file dissappeared to, and why it 
cannot write to the new one regardless of who owns it, as shown 
above.

Mail seems to be comeing in ok, but it appears that the spam is going 
into a black hole as opposed to the JunqueMail folder in kmail like 
it was before.

Any clues here, or urls for a mailing list?

Thanks.
