Hi Marco,

Wow... I'm impressed!

I added "-x" option to spamd start script as you mentioned (to prevent "user
prefs" to become active) and, sure it works!

Thank you very much for you tip. I was being crazy to find the error, and
looked and re-looked the local.cf and anything seemed O.K. I think SA admins
should add a little note in documentation in order to prevent SA user's
sanity...

:-D

Greetings.

Not that impressive; I got hit by it myself when I started using spamd 
instead of spamassassin directly :-)

It's fixed in the new version (3.0.1), so you might consider upgrading 
to that.
