SpamAssassin and userprefs on MySQL

Useful when using shared bayesdb and squirrelmail sasql. Read /usr/share/doc/spamassassin/sql.

mysql -u root -p
mysql>grant insert,select,delete,update on sasql.* to 'sasqluser'@'localhost' identified by 'sasqlpass';
mysql>flush privileges;
mysql>create database sasql;
mysql>quit
mysql sasql -u root -p < /usr/share/doc/spamassassin/sql/userpref_mysql.sql

and make sure to run spamd with the options -q -x.

On debian you set those in /etc/default/spamassassin under "OPTIONS".
