This is very strange, I've had installed not less than 30 times qmail-scanner with Spamassassin over RH7.3, and always work for me.

Spamd runs with the same 'user' than qmail-scanner and is started with the options "-d -L -x -u qscand"

Only once I've had a problem because the incoming mail went through a mailhub before the server with qmail-scanner, and the IP of the mailhub was as a RELAYCLIENT in /etc/tcp.smtp, I've just comented the third line of the spamassassin routine in qmail-scanner-queue.pl

#return if (defined($ENV{'RELAYCLIENT'}) && !defined($ENV{'QS_SPAMASSASSIN'}));

Hope this help

I was never able to get SA to work through qmail-scanner myself. I just did
a work-around by running the spamc client before QS. In my case,
QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/script" which is a bash script that just does:
---------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# file:/var/qmail/bin/script
/usr/local/bin/spamc -f | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl
---------------------------------------------------------------
so it's just pipelined before SA. It works great for me on my RH7.3 netqmail
install. I got tired of trying to figure out why QS wouldn't read the SA
results, and took the easy way out! hehe In my case, SA worked fine directly
and so did QS. Together, it appeared that QS would take an inbound msg,
write to disk and scan (clamav etc), pass a copy to SA, SA would check and
confirm SPAM, (hand the SA marked msg back to QS?) which would DROP that msg
and use the tmp msg from disk it created to give to SA in the first place!
That's what it seemed like. SA was logging detected SPAM in the maillog, but
no indication from SA ever appeared in the msgs.

Hope this helps...

Ken
