No, and you probably don't have your plugins directly there either. The default plugins are in .../Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugins. You could put your own plugins there, but it's not a requirement. It also, imo, makes it annoying in certain situations. Upgrading a plugin, for instance -- I can't remember that path, and I'm tired of having to look it up when I need it. YMMV. I'd probably shove my own plugins in /etc/mail/spamassassin/plugins so that they're in the same place as the configs I would edit to enable them. Then you just set the loadplugin line to aim at the path and you're done. (see perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf's loadplugin area to see what I mean.) -- Randomly Selected Tagline: "The weaknesses and the strengths of computer networking derive from the same feature: it is easy to send messages to anyone who has access to the network." - Donald A.
