If the original was installed from CPAN, that's the best way to upgrade. Just (as root) # cpan cpan> install Mail::SpamAssassin or you can download (as you did below - BTW the latest is v3.2.5), blow up the tarball, and then $ perl Makefile.PL $ make $ make test $ su - # make install Then restart spamd. For RedHat-ish distros and some others: # service spamassassin restart All that said, if it was installed from the distro, best to update from the distro. You _can_ overwrite it with the method above, but be aware that if a distro upgrade is applied, it will overwrite your tarball upgrade. Still, you can do the tarball upgrade again (just "make install" if the build directory is still lying about). > I yet downloaded 3.2.4 and run perl Makefiel.PL without installing.

You can install them from CPAN, and then rerun your "perl Makefile.PL" for SA. > Regards, > Alexander Cheers, -- Bob McClure, Jr. Bobcat Open Systems, Inc.
