A note about this port - I installed the 2.50_1 port with portupgrade, 
having previously installed the 2.44 port. I knew that there would be 
differences in the default way it reported spam, so I changed my 
"/usr/local/etc/mail/local.cf" (the local configuration file, which 
contained some configuration options in addition to some custom rules I'd 
written) in advance. Unfortunately, the new install wiped out that local 
configuration file and replaced it with the "local.cf" in the SpamAssassin 
distribution.

Previous versions of the port didn't behave that way, and in general it has 
been my experience that ports don't behave that way - if there's a local 
configuration file, it's left alone, and the local configuration file from 
the distribution is installed as (in this case) "local.cf-dist" or the 
like. Can this behavior be restored for future versions of the SpamAssassin 
port?

Thanks...

-Dan
