Hi,
  I've just had to reinstall Spamassassin on my mail distribution box after a
hard drive crash. Unfortunately, this has caused a few problems with
SpamAssassin.
  I'm using the default procmail recipe (the one that comes with SA) to feed
emails through SA as Procmail gets them. This seems to work fine.
  I've also enabled DNSBL checks in SpamAssassin (by installing Net::DNS).
For some odd reason, spamd/spamc process the mail perfectly from the command
line (i.e. after I receive it I save it to a file and run "spamc -r < msg"),
but when run through Procmail it keeps skipping the DNSBL checks. This is
rather annoying as the DNSBL checks are (IME) the most useful and the most
likely to catch potential spam. If they are disabled, my spam count goes from
one or two per day to twenty or thirty per day.
  Does anyone know why spamc is skipping these checks?

  The server is an AMD K6-II/450 (underclocked to 400MHz) with 96MB RAM and a
15GB hard disk, running Slackware Linux 9.1. Mail is fetched from a remote
POP3 server using Fetchmail, then fed through and delivered by Procmail.

Thanks.
