Second, I don't want to keep adding/modifying rules/scores in
/.spamassassin/user_prefs if it's not the correct way. As I am
constantly tweaking my spam scores, can I add scores to a config file
and make them become active without having to restart SA? Right now,
adding them to /.spamassassin/user_prefs works correctly without having
to restart SA.
per-user files are afaik being read when mail is scanned, while for changing
global config file you have to reload spamd. I'm afraid it won't be
different. But I think that if you are permanently changing scores,
something goes wrong there. Be very careful about playing with scores!
I guess it would make sense to change the scores in a load time loaded
file as opposed to a run time loaded file, because of syntax errors and
such. This would give me a chance to run run SA with the lint option.
