Hi list/SuSE,
I've just installed SuSE 9.1 on a machine and want to migrate my
mailserver to it. But I'm running into a problem: I can't get
spamassassin to work. I've started out with the default spamassassin
included with the distribution. All seems to go well: I connect to
sendmail, the milter nicely works (I use milter-spamc from
www.snert.org), I tried a non-rfc-compliant sender address to verify
this (see logging below). After completion of the message, the milter
hands it off to spamassassin and nothing happens.
I've tried compiling my own spamassassin (force install through CPAN and
compiling from source myself). Same result. I've even gone so far as to
compile my own version of the berkely db. Nothing seems to help. I'm
sure there's some logical explanation why it isn't working, but I can't
find it right now. Has anyone experienced the same problem and maybe
found a solution?
Relevant numbers:
Sendmail 8.12.11
spamassassin 2.63
milter-spamc 0.17
libsnert 1.33
SuSE 9.1 with updates (kernel 2.6.4.54)
Any help would be appreciated,
TIA
Stefan
