The reason why I use the bayes path is because on my server (virtual private freebsd), the SA install writes the config files to /usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin instead of /etc/mail/spamassassin. So if I don't specify bayes_path, then it will stick the bayes stuff under /etc/mail/spamassassin.
Although using bayes_file_mode 0777 is insecure, I am okay with it giving the fact that I am the only one with shell access to the box. However, I would like to identify the right way to do it so I don't have to throw a work around into play. Thanks for all your input! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/bayes_journal-tp21364727p21365382.html Sent from the SpamAssassin - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
