Description David Roth 2003-10-09 02:07:29 UTC 
After getting everything to compile, and installed, I did the following test as suggested in 
the USAGE document:

	spamassassin -t < sample-spam.txt  > spam.out

and got this error:

Use of inherited AUTOLOAD for non-method Sys::Hostname::SYS_gethostname() is 
deprecated at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux/Sys/Hostname.pm line 71.

I checked the spam.out and it appears to have done its job as tagging it as SPAM, "X-
Spam-Flag: YES". But I don't want to ignore this error message.

I get the same exact error for the:
	spamassassin -t < sample-nonspam.txt > nonspam.out

The USAGE documentation states "If the commands do not work, DO NOT PROCEED TO 
THE NEXT STEP, as you will lose mail!".

My ISP's webserver is running Red Hat Linux release 7.3 and Perl, v5.6.1 built for i686-
linux.

Bug still exists as described in SA 2.61.

works fine everywhere else I'm afraid -- I think you've got an issue with
your/their perl install.  it can be ignored.
