Awesome thanks.

the output showed

which seems to me that it is actually loading up the correct files - yet when i do a test on a piece of mail which should hit heaps of rules especially the sought_rules it is not hitting at all.
Are there any other tests I can do?

Hi all,

My installation of spamassassin seems to have stopped using all the rules I have added when checking email. They now reside in /var/lib/spamassassin/3.002002

I'm trying to run spamassassin -D --lint and output it to say test.txt so that I can see it all later and try and trouble shoot why its not using the rules.

Can anyone tell me how I can do this or if there is a better way to check why they are not working.
The debug output goes to stderr. you need to redirect it with 2> instead of >

ie: spamassassin -D --lint 2> output.txt
