Report spam to Razor

[Bill Shirley <bi...@philly.polymerindustries.biz>]

I'm looking into modifying my spam processing script so it will report spam to Razor.
 From the Spamassassin Wiki: https://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/ReportingSpam
I should use:
	spamassassin -r < message.txt
It states "The message will also be submitted to SpamAssassin's learning systems".  Looking
at the parms for spamassassin there is not --dbpath like there is for sa-learn.

Does it in fact train the Bayes DB and if so why is there no way to specify --dbpath ?  I'm
using per user Bayes and have some vmail accounts so the --dbpath is not /home/vmail/.spamassassin

Also 'spamassassin --help' says:
Usage:
     spamassassin [options] [ < *mailmessage* | *path* ... ]

Does that mean I can use a directory: smapassassin -r < /home/bob/Maildir/.Spam/ ?

TIA,
Bill

I'm not sure what you mean by vmail, but if you are using virtual home
directories you can probably work around it by setting HOME.

That's how I use sa-learn, which looks in $HOME/.spamassassin/ rather
than the actual unix home directory. I would expect the spamassassin
script to do the same thing.

IIRC Razor says it should only be fed up manually (FYI)

that's because spamassassin is not sa-learn. you ev en should have your
db_path in your SA config.

No: it explicitly says you can only use < with message, you must specify
path without the <.
