user_prefs on anti-spam Gateway witout lokal accounts

Hi there,

is there a way to use "user_prefs" on a system where spamassassin is
called by amavisd-new and doesn't have local user accounts?

I use the Spamfilter just as an gateway!

Thanks Frank

Amavisd-new runs as the amavisd-new user so the only user_prefs file used is 
the one for the amavisd-new user. It is possible to give individual 
recipients a large number of non-default settings (see the policy table at 
http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/README.sql.txt for an idea of what can be 
set) but you cannot assign different sets of SA rules such as you might in a 
set of various user_prefs files. Also read amavisd.conf-sample and 
http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/README.lookups.txt.
