Gary,

 

 Its an old problem with /root/.spamassassin

 I dunt know why spamassassin still have it by default :(

 I spent a day or so to figure it out.. however,

 

 in your local.cf

 add the lines

 

auto_whitelist_path /var/spool/spamd/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist
bayes_path /var/spool/spamd/.spamassassin/bayes

 

 Save and Exit,

 Then:

 

 mkdir /var/spool/spamd/.spamassassin

 touch /var/spool/spamd/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist

 chown spamd .spamassassin

 chown spamd auto-whitelist

 

 You will need to set the right permissions then.

 

 And thats it.
