[Mimedefang] [PATCH] SpamAssassin should use MIMEdefang $CWD instead of /tmp for DCC/PYZOR checks

[Martin Blapp]

Hi,

I noticed that spamassassin does create files in /tmp if used within
Mimedefang. And I really think those files don't belong there, since
I've made a ramdisk for the Mimedefang spool dir.

First I thought this could be achieved with setting $TMP or $TEMPDIR in ENV,
but this didn't help, unfortunately.

The change to spamassassin is small, but works wonderful:

Instead of:

/tmp/spamassassin.38827.iALQHS.tmp

we have now:

/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mdefang-j3TAmZJe021409/spamassassin.38827.iALQHS.tmp
