I checked and did find 2 spamd files.  One was in /usr/bin with the

that are in the init.d directory with the ones from the /usr/bin
directory.  (replaced the spamassassin and spamd files).  I then stopped
and restarted spamd.  I checked emails that came in after the restart of
spamd and they still say version 3.0.2.  I'm guessing I'm still missing
something?

Any suggestions?


Yeah, the one in /usr/bin is the actual file. The one you see in /etc/rc.d/init.d is a startup script for spamd. These are NOT the same thing. You do NOT want to copy /usr/bin/spamd to /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamd! What you did will cause spamd to not start up on reboot anymore. I would undo what you did and look around some more for another copy. the one in init.d is not what your looking for.

ls /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/*/Mail/SpamAssassin*
ls /usr/sbin/spam*
ls /usr/local/sbin/spam*

If the first shows TWO SpamAssassin.pm modules you're toast.
If the second two tests both show spamd and spamassassin you're toast.

If you are toast you need to back out BOTH SpamAssassin installs, to
make sure you are clean, then install the newer one.
