Using sa-learn and fetchmail

Hi all,

As described in the SA wiki, I have set up fetchmail to read a mail folder
in to sa-learn. However I get the following error:

> /usr/local/bin/fetchmail -a -s -n --uidl --keep --folder LearnAsSpam -m
'/usr/local/bin/sa-learn --spam'
archive-iterator: invalid (undef) format in target list, 2 at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mail/SpamAssassin/ArchiveIterator.pm
line 724, <STDIN> line 1.
Learned tokens from 0 message(s) (1 message(s) examined)
>

If I try reading the mail box directly with :

> /usr/local/bin/sa-learn --spam --mbox $HOME/mail/LearnAsSpam
Learned tokens from 0 message(s) (2 message(s) examined)
>

It works fine.

I am using SpamAssassin version 3.1.8. Has anybody a suggestion?

Thanks 

Matthew
