Where is the user's user_prefs file supposed to live? Mine is in ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs, but it is ignored (presently full of whitelist_rcvd entries that never fire). This is where it has been since spamassassin 2.6.xxx
If I put all of those into /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf they actually work, and I see whitelist checks triggering on emails. I can't seem to find this info in the docs, or what to do to allow per-user prefs (someone suggested they are off by default in the current version of SA. thanks, -chuck
