Did that, fetchmail got it ("reading message 1 of 1 (1382 octets) .
flushed"), never saw it. I put "| spamassassin -D" in .procmailrc, and
the message disappeared. I see this in /var/log/maillog:
Jan 18 15:21:26 pc sendmail[5122]: k0IKLQZm005122: from=<eben1@tampabay.rr.com>, size=1475, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<Pine.LNX.4.44.0601181520450.29125-100000@pc.tampabay.rr.com>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]

^^^^^^^^
That isn't SA.
When I use "| spamassassin -D 255", the message appears in my Inbox, free of
any signs that Spamassassin had examined it. I guess SA barfed on the
illegal syntax. Nothing is logged, except lines similar to those above.
"| spamassassin -D rulesrun=255" makes it vanish.
I commented out my additions to /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
("required_score 0" and "include scores.2006-01-15"), same effect.

OK, that says feed spamassassin a file in /usr/share/spamassassin/doc .
That directory doesn't exist. What have you used to replace that file?

Doesn't say what the available areas _are_. It does indicate the area is
optional...
See above for results.

See that. Do I need to load that module (how?), or just use the functions
(in local.cf?)?
