I run spamassassin 3.0.2 as user spamfilter,
the command is:
/usr/sbin/spamd --create-prefs --max-children 5 --helper-home-dir -u spamfilter --nouser-config -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid
I keep my whitelist_from lines in /home/spamfilter/.spamassassin/user_prefs
the file is read successfully: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.spamassassin$ spamassassin -D --lint :
OK, the -D --lint looks fine.. Have you tried feeding SA a message that should match in debug mode?
spamassassin -D <test_message.txt
Hack up a copy of the sample-nonspam.txt that comes with SA if you have no other source of email as a text file...
