..now amavisd is run with root user but also with:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ls -l /var/amavis/.spamassassin/

-rwxr-x---  1 amavis amavis   45056  4 gen 11:52 auto-whitelist
-rwxr-x---  1 amavis amavis 5214208  2 gen 11:01 bayes_seen
-rw-------  1 amavis amavis   5427200  2 gen 11:01 bayes_toks

..and with:

#ls -l /var/sbin/amavisd
-rwxr-xr-x 1 amavis amavis 624857 9 mag 2005 /usr/sbin/amavisd

..I have:
#amavisd debug
