Cross-posting from the MD list. People are seeing the dying of spamd/spamc.
I'm wondering if this issue isn't bad enough that we should mark the rc1 as
do not download?
Also, not sure if this is related to bug 6176...
Regards,
KAM

Has anyone tried SA 3.3.0-rc1 yet?
Yes, and it worked for us. However, we specifically set a user_dir.
SA 3.3.0-rc1 dies if it can't create the user state directory
(See Mail::SpamAssassin->get_and_create_userstate_dir())
As a workaround until we fix MIMEDefang, you need to create your
own $SASpamTester in your filter, supplying an appropriate userstate_dir:
# Put this somewhere in your filter....
use vars qw($SASpamTester);
$SASpamTester = Mail::SpamAssassin::new({
local_tests_only => 1, # or 0 depending on what you want
dont_copy_prefs => 1,
userprefs_filename => '/etc/mail/sa-mimedefang.cf', # or whatever
user_dir => '/some/path});
The directory '/some/path' will be used as the "home" directory for
SpamAssassin's purposes; it must be readable/writable/searchable by
the "defang" user. A good choice might be /var/spool/MIMEDefang.

David.
