Description of problem:
The directory /etc/mail is for the Sendmail MTA.  When using an MTA other than  
Sendmail it's not used for anything other than Spamassasin.  It doesn't make  
sense to have this implicit connection between Spamassasin and Sendmail. 
  
Could you please change spamassasin to use /etc/spamassasin for it's config  
files with a sym-link for compatibility if necessary.
