Amavisd + SpamAssassin not working? no mail header (X-Spam-*) inserted

Amavisd config file is different on different Linux/BSD distributions, you can find the correct one for your server in this tutorial: Locations of configuration and log files of major components

To understand whether Amavisd + SpamAssassin are working, you can add this setting to Amavisd config file:

$log_templ = $log_verbose_templ;

Then restart Amavisd service, it will log verbose message in log file. For example:

May 18 09:54:15 ob amavis[24548]: (24548-01) Passed CLEAN {RelayedInbound}, [127.0.0.1] /ESMTP <root@...mail.org> -> <bugs@...bsd.org>, (), Message-ID: <20160518015301.B2A741344D@...mail.org>, mail_id: JcfAanaWAP-2, b: efIM2W-Q-, Hits: -, size: 161634, queued_as: 4756B13453, Subject: "ldapd(8) doesn't correctly handle MOD_DELETE operation", From: <zhb@...mail.org>, helo=...mail.org, 160 ms


If you really want `X-Spam-*` headers in email, please decrease Amavisd setting
`$sa_tag_level_deflt` to a very low score, e.g. `-999`, then restart Amavisd
service. it will always insert `X-Spam-*` headers in email:

$sa_tag_level_deflt = -999;


That means Amavisd will insert `X-Spam-Flag` and other `X-Spam-*` headers when
email score >= `-999`.
