I've had exactly the same problem as you did until I sorted
out two things:

- ownership and access rights in $DSPAMHOME/data/username
folders; apache user has to be able to manipulate those in
read and write manner, configure suexec or do smth else with
apache and groups that I should not get caught recommending

e.g. if apache user can't read/write dan.mbox in data
folder, it can't find the signature which you got in logs
(happened to me, too).

Thanks for the response Marcin.

I will play around with permissions and suexec black magic when I get home. As someone else said in a dspam howto, "I would personally like to meet the guy who invented suexec, and punch him in the balls".

I think the cgi admin part of dspam is certainly the weakest part of the package. I would like to see a more robust gtk+ solution. I haven't had much of a look at how the cgi stuff works yet, but in the future, when things calm down a bit with other stuff, I might look at writing a Gtk2-Perl solution. The problem with this is that you'd need a Linux client to access it remotely ( X forwarding ), but personally I don't find that a problem, and people who do are of course free to use the cgi thing.
