RE: where rule resides/ and scored-Clarification

[Jean-Paul Natola <jn...@familycareintl.org>]

Ok I found the rule,  

Now I just got a little more confused 

Does SA read and score from 

/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/updates_spamassassin_org

As well as from

/usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin ?- this is where I have added custom rules
in the past.

And I do use sa-update

Thanks for your tolerating me folks :)

Same as all the other default rules, either the default rules directory
(typically /usr/share/spamassassin) or if you use sa-update it'll be in the
local state directory (typically
/var/lib/spamassassin/<version>/updates_spamassassin_org).

More info in the spamassassin POD.

It'll read from both of those.  The first is the local state dir, the
second is your site config dir.

As mentioned before, reading the spamassassin POD gives more information.
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RuleUpdates has other info related to
sa-update.
