Thank you. It works out of the box (after installing ocrad) here on Ubuntu 8.04.2 linux with SA 3.2.4 and Perl 5.8.8. I miss an option to adjust the score, though. My test got a FOCR score of 17 which is far more than I want. To my surprise, setting a different FOCR score in a *.cf file in /etc/mail/spamassassin/ did not change the result. Regards, wolfgang
