I found symlinking a user's ~/.spamassassin directory to somewhere else
works just fine.
Here's a shell script I wrote to do this. Modify to suit your system:
#!/bin/sh
# Move user's SA config from /home/{user}/.spamassassin to
# /var/SpamAssassin/{user}
nul=""
case "$1" in
$nul)
echo "usage: move-sa-user [user]"
echo " Username is REQUIRED"
exit 1;
;;
*)
mkdir /var/SpamAssassin/$1
mv /home/$1/.spamassassin/* /var/SpamAssassin/$1/
rm -rf /home/$1/.spamassassin/
ln -s /var/SpamAssassin/$1 /home/$1/.spamassassin
chown -R $1:mail_pop_only /var/SpamAssassin/$1
chown $1:mail_pop_only /home/$1/.spamassassin
echo "User's SA config moved."
;;
esac

I would like to know where can i change the path to > /somehere/.spamassassin ?? If it's IO, it's probably the bayes and AWL. Those can be changed using bayes_path and auto_whitelist_path settings at the local.cf level. WARNING: despite their names, these options are not just paths. bayes takes a path plus a partial filename that it will append _toks, _seen, etc to. The AWL one takes a path and a filename. However, unless this path is in ~/ you'll loose per-user state for these files, causing them all to be shared.. That might or might not be OK with you. see man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf for more details. > OR How do i change the userstate_dir path to > /something_else/.spamassassin in place of /$USER_DIR/.spamassassin. If you use spamd, you can use the --virtual-config-dir option, to use SA data in some completely different path. This also allows %l to be specified to generate per-user directories. ie: --virtual-config-dir /vhome/%l/.spamaassassin see man spamd for more details
