I've been seeing the same behaviour over the past week or so, with
/etc/apt/sources.list configured with:
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian
I think this is a debian package thing, not dspam.
But I have user .pref files and the option to put them into the database.
And they are both there and they both conflict...
How do you I resolve this?
I would prefer to use the database if I could.
