So I suppose it's possible that spamassassin would just go on merrily checking messages even if the bayesian plugin is missing. Man, now you're really testing my memory. There is a way to run the spamassassin service in the foreground so you can see its output. It displays a list of perl modules it looked for and whether it found them. I think if you just say, 'man spamassassin' you can find that. But otherwise you can also check if the module is there in the perl interpreter itself. Just type 'perl' at the command line and then 'Use Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Bayes ;' Or you could write a quick script to do it: #!/usr/bin/perl use Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Bayes; If the above 2 line script works, then the plugin is installed. If you installed spamassassin via a package manager, I would think all necessary perl modules would be installed as dependencies. It doesn't seem likely to me that the plugin would be missing. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gregory Nowak" To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux."
