Tim,
try the command:
spamassassin --lint -D
(toss on the debug option). It will print out a whole bunch of
stuff, but somewhere in there it should tell you exactly which
directories it's taking config files from. For example, the relevant
snippet of output from my system looks like:
[snip..]
debug: PATH included '/sbin', keeping.
debug: Final PATH set to:
/usr/sbin:/opt/softbench/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/sbin
debug: ignore: using a test message to lint rules
debug: using "/usr/local/opt/perl-5.6.1/share/spamassassin" for default rules
dir
debug: using "/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir
debug: using "/home/root/.spamassassin" for user state dir
debug: using "/home/root/.spamassassin/user_prefs" for user prefs file
debug: bayes: 25382 tie-ing to DB file R/O
/etc/mail/spamassassin/bayes/bayes_toks
[snip..]
Now take each of those 'using "/bla/bla" for ha dir' lines and search in
there for your offending stuff.
for example, to find out where the rule "NO_REAL_NAME" came from, I could
do:
grep NO_REAL_NAME /usr/local/opt/perl-5.6.1/share/spamassassin/*.cf
grep NO_REAL_NAME /etc/mail/spamassassin/*.cf
grep NO_REAL_NAME /home/root/.spamassassin/*.cf
grep NO_REAL_NAME /home/root/.spamassassin/user_prefs
and in one of those places I'll be sure to find that rule.
Note that a particular rule or config command can exist in more
than one place. In that case, the last one that SA loads overrules
the earlier ones.
