I have no idea why it doesn't work for you.  I haven't touched the Prefix 
equates at all.  Then again, I installed my last version of SpamAssassin 
using CPAN.  However, before that I just used their rpm's.  

BTW, /usr/bin/spamassassin isn't a binary.  It's a perl script.

It's faster because MailScanner is also a perl program and it makes calls 
directly to the SpamAssassin libraries.  It bypasses the SpamAssassin 
application totally.
