lint's output goes to stderr, therefore you need to do this to redirect it. spamassassin --lint 2> file.out Note that the "2" means "redirect filehandle 2" and file handle #2 is stderr. You can also do piping if you redirect stderr back to to stdout (handle 1): spamassassin --lint 2>&1 | grep "sometext" > somefile.out
