I don't expect people supporting old releases of DSPAM. I'm aware of
the new releases. But I was not aware that asking questions regarding
old versions is discouraged. If the problem was not so fundamental
(learning with empty user profile) I probably would not have asked.
It's not that. It's just that people on this list (as far as I've seen)
have been complaining that 3.6.8 doesn't do what they want (not me, but
others), let alone 3.4.9. There just aren't the people on the list to
help with this,
That's okay and as I don't pay anybody to support old versions, I don't expect
anything. However, I figured that maybe someone with an older installation came
across that problem and may be able to help me.

I agree with you that MySQL (and maybe Postgres) is probably the best
option for DSPAM production servers but as of 3.6.8 sqlite_drv is the
*default* storage driver so I'm not surprised to see that most people
with problems just use the defaults...
Where in the docs does it say this? 'grepping' gives "[20050930.0300] jonz:
[...]
made hash_drv default driver."
You are right, the docs are inconsistent in this point and I don't search
throughly enough. But my basic statement is still that one of these 'funny DB
backends' is actually the default at least in 3.4 (sqlite) and 3.6 (hash).
I looked in the README:

Specify your storage driver selection(s). A storage driver is a driver
written specifically for DSPAM to store tokens, signature data, and
perform other proprietary operations. The default driver is sqlite_drv,
which uses SQLite. The following drivers have been provided:

If your problem is with install standardization (you need quick,
standard installs to Linux FHS locations) and you run Red Hat Fedora
or RHAS/RHEL and want dspam rpms, then I can give you either rpms or
srpms (for SuSE I cannot help).
I have RPMs for all my new server, but thank you for your offers.
Interesting ... what OS/vendor are you using?
RHEL with custom made RPMS. Time permitting in the next 2-3 months, these may be
fed into Fedora.
