           Summary: Use of Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit breaks --log-to-
                    mbox option
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 2.61
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: Libraries
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I tried to use SpamAssassin 2.61 from a script with the --log-to-mbox option.
When I subsequently attempted to open the mbox file specified with the option,
using "mutt -m mbox -f my.mbox", I received the message "not a mailbox". I
inspected the file. The messages I had piped to SpamAssassin were in the file,
but they were not separated by the required mbox "From_" line. I took a look at
the SpamAssassin source code and found the comment beginning at line 129 that
describes a change from "1. Standard Mail::Audit start" (commented out in the
source) to "2. No use of Mail::Audit", instead using
Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit (not commented out in the source). On a hunch, I
commented out method #2 and uncommented method #1, then re-ran my script. Voila!
The generated file was a properly formatted mbox, and I was able to open and
read it with mutt.

The comments state that this change was made due to bugs with Mail::Audit, but
it seems that it has introduced a regression error.

A diff showing my exact changes follows:

$ diff spamassassin spamassassin.backup

< $mail = Mail::Audit->new();

< #    $mail = Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit->new ();
