Thank you for your response. I didn't know it! dig gives me "895075" and with sa-update -D I found that I was looking in to the wrong directory (/usr/local/share/spamassassin instead of /var/db/spamassassin/3.002005/updates_spamassassin_org) so the rules seems to be updated fine. Sorry for the noise. Just one question - where can I find the domain or IP from where updates are fetched? Miroslav Lachman
