Jafo,

I followed the directions on your thread regarding spamassassin installation. After downloading version 3.1.1 from the apache website and SSH into the user account in question I got the following errors with <tar -xvf Mail*> command:

tar: This does not look like a tar file
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

I also tried FTP from the SSH console and got the same result.

Thanks.

I am going to assume the file is either corrupt, or not a tar file. Perhaps it is gzip'd? You will have to unzip it first (gzip -d filename).

Yeap, it was gzip'd, thank you !
