I did this by specifying a special user (spamuser) when calling spamc in
the /etc/procmailrc file. I configured the local.cf file to point to
the databases under that users directory as well. I believe this takes
care of the site-wide autowhitelist.db also. With my setup I believe
this overrides any settings in a users prefs file.


This was all with the 2.63 version, so I don't know if this will still
apply to 3.0.


This has worked well here. YMMV.

I read that setting the user in /etc/sysconfig/spamd using something like "-u spamd -H /home/spamd/.spamassassin" would do the trick as well.

Then, once I removed the old -c switch and moved all the user whitelist and blacklist entries to local.cf, it seems to be running fine.

FMI, how do you specify the user in procmailrc?
