--virtual-config-dir=pattern

This option specifies where per-user preferences can be found for virtual users, for the -x switch. The pattern is used as a base pattern for the directory name. Any of the following escapes can be used:

%u -- replaced with the full name of the current user, as sent by spamc.

%l -- replaced with the 'local part' of the current username. In other words, if the username is an email address, this is the part before the @ sign.

%d -- replaced with the 'domain' of the current username. In other words, if the username is an email address, this is the part after the @ sign.

%% -- replaced with a single percent sign (%).

So for example, if /vhome/users/%u/spamassassin is specified, and spamc sends a virtual username of jm@example.com, the directory /vhome/users/jm@example.com/spamassassin will be used.

The set of characters allowed in the virtual username for this path are restricted to:

        A-Z a-z 0-9 - + _ . , @ =

All others will be replaced by underscores (_).

This path must be a writable directory. It will be created if it does not already exist. If a file called user_prefs exists in this directory (note: not in a .spamassassin subdirectory!), it will be loaded as the user's preferences. The auto-whitelist and/or Bayes databases for that user will be stored in this directory.

Note that this requires that -x is used, and cannot be combined with SQL- or LDAP-based configuration.

The pattern must expand to an absolute directory when spamd is running daemonized (-d).
