It should work if you have full internet DNS access, some networks behind proxies only have local DNS. If in doubt try this: $ dig +short mirrors.updates.spamassassin.org txt "http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/MIRRORED.BY; Also try running sa-update -D for more information > I tried the following ways : > > > 1- I set on my /etc/bash.bashrc > > export HTTP_PROXY=http://myserver:myport/ > export FTP_PROXY=http://myserver:myport/ > > Another way: > > 2- I set on my > > alias sa-update='env http_proxy=http://myserver:myport/ > https_proxy=http://myserver:myport/ sa-update' IIRC it uses curl, wget or fetch if it finds one of them, and will fall-back to perl. I'm guessing there's a reason for not preferring perl. I think curl and wget use the lower-case versions and fetch prefers upper-case, but should fall-back to lower.

Lose the "env"?
Why? Apart from using an extra process, this should work exactly the same.
{reads man page} Ah, I wasn't aware env did that, I thought it was just a
dump utility (or, at least, that's the only way I've ever used it). I'm
used to just prepending local env sets before the command.
No idea why that wouldn't work, then.
