according to OP mail the directory is owned by spamd user

https://marc.info/?l=spamassassin-users&m=171891451702472&w=2


bayes_path ~/.spamassassin/bayes

path is not a file, just a dir


it's a path + filename prefix 
so the setting is correct.


I however prefer using /var, like in debian:

debian-spamd:x:114:114::/var/lib/spamassassin:/bin/sh

drwx-- 2 debian-spamd debian-spamd 4096 Jun 22 02:13 
/var/lib/spamassassin/.spamassassin/

YMMV of course

Re: Question about sa-updates

It’s not clear to me from your answer. Does SA read rules in both
places?


it eveal first sa-update rules, then later host rules


Or only in /etc/mail/spamassassin/?


this is host rules, you define all global configs here, and it will 
never be overrided by sa-update


add rules to userprefs.cf in same place as local.cf is, score userprefs 
rules with nearly zerro score, but not zerro 0, why this ?


if done this way scores can be changed in ldap/sql pr user, even in 
$HOME./spamassassin/user-prefs


more help, then i need more info :=)
