3.4.0. > Could you try to run "sa-update -D" and post the results ? Thanks, that was the pointer I needed. I've started poking around the source too. The key thing when running ‘sa-update -D’ as root now is: dbg: dns: 0.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org => 1923802, parsed as 1923802 dbg: channel: current version is 1923802, new version is 1923802, skipping channel so /var/lib/spamassassin/3.004000/updates_spamassassin_org/MIRRORED.BY isn't examined. Its mtime is 2025-01-29 05:23:18 +0000. I've added -D to the sa-update run by cron so will gather more debug from the overnight run which generates the error above. -- Cheers, Ralph.
