Upgrade RH to a newer version, 7.3 includes 5.6.1. You can also upgrade Perl to a newer version (current is 5.8.7), but this may have some side-effects (not familiar with RH). I'm pretty sure Google can answer your question much faster and better than this maillinglist btw ;-) Kind regards, Sander Holthaus PS: Sorry for the short answer, but answering it completely would be somewhat offtopic and long. More important, you will learn much more by finding the answer yourself (including learning how to find answers :-) ).

RH 7.2 Upgrade your perl, upgrade your OS to a more recent RedHat, or use SA 2.64 (requires perl 5.005 or higher). Besides, you wouldn't want to install 3.0.0 anyway.. if you're going to install a 3.0 series, install 3.0.4. (which also requires perl 5.6.1 or higher, but is less buggy) 3.0.0 was a little rough around the edges and had some significant bugs that consumed a lot of memory, and 3.0.1-3.0.3 are subject to DoS vulnerabilities. Really the only two SA releases that are worth considering are 2.64 (for old perl) and 3.0.4 (for recent perl versions). Anything outside those two is very old, subject to a DoS, or buggy.

RH 7.2 Perl 5.6.0 is no good. Upgrade to 5.6.1. You can get packages from fedoralegacy.org and you might want to upgrade to RH 7.3 while you are at it. Also, make sure you get SpamAssassin 3.0.4!!
