sa-update

I've been running sa-update on my system and have a few questions.

 

My spamassassin folder is a folder structure under:

 

/home/spam-filter/

 

The sa default rules are in:

/home/spam-filter/share/spamassassin

 

The sa-update/spamd/spamc/spamassassin are in

/home/spam-filter/bin

 

When I go to /home/spam-filter/bin and run sa-update -nogpg, it appears to
download and place the updated rulesets in:

/home/spam-filter/var/spamassassin/3.001001/updates_spamassassin_org

 

When I restart spamd, does it look in that directory for the updated rules
or do I have a step I'm missing to put the rules over into the primary rules
folder (and update 10_misc.cf to make sure it has the proper contact address
instead of @@CONTACT_ADDRESS@@).

It seems you have installed sa only for this user? It identified a "local state 
dir", it should use it. You can check this by running spamassassin -D --lint 
with the same user that spamd runs under.
