NO. sa-update lint checks the rules in a sandbox, and does not update the local channel, if there are any issues. Moreover, do NOT copy these updates to your site config dir -- but keep it in the update dir where sa-update puts them [1]. SA knows how to use them instead of the "install-time" default conf. See 'man spamassassin', section Configuration Files. And of course the wiki docs, specifically about sa-update. > SA should automatically pick up on the new rules, correct? Yes. SA will use the updates as provided by sa-update, when available. All you need to do is to restart your daemon, IFF there have been any updates. I strongly suggest you do some documentation reading. It's a rather bizarre picture I'm sensing here. From your recent posts I understand you are running a mail server for a large organization. Yet there is this cannonade with rather basic questions... guenther [1] And get rid of the ones you already copied. Site config overwrites default config. -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu...@ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
