Can you define "local rules" in this context? SA first reads in the default rules, then reads in the site rules, then looks at userprefs. > site_rules_path (/etc/mail/spamassassin) > default_rules_path (/usr/share/spamassassin) > updates_rules_path (/var/lib/spamassassin/<version>) > default_userprefs_path (~/.spamassassin/user_prefs) No, because then the local admin has no way to override/update the default or update rule configs. The default rules should be first, updated by updates, overridden by the site config, overridden by the user config. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "Klingon function calls do not have 'parameters' - they have 'arguments' - and they ALWAYS WIN THEM." - Klingon Programmer's Manual
