   Nevermind.  Found it!  Never fails that right after I throw in the 
towel I find my answer...


   However, I am still baffled by spamassasin.  Never used it, so I am a 
total noob at this point.  I *think* SuSE installed it when it 
installed Postfix.  Postfix is running and happily sending and receiving 
email.  But I haven't a clue if it is hooked in with Spamassasin and doing 
any spam filtering.  How does one tell???

   o The spamassasin files are installed :)
   o ps aux shows no spamassasin running :(
   o /etc/init.d/rc5.d shows no startup script for spamassasin
   o Browsing the Postfix config files I have yet to find any reference to 
     spamassasin (or how to hook in with any other spam filter tool)
   o Browsing the Spamassasin configs leaves me just as clueless...


   Anyone been down this road before that could shine a little light 
on the subject -- would be VERY much appreciated!!

   Thanks!
