Mimedefang uses its own config file for SpamAssassin. So running
SpamAssassin manually will still differ from running under MimeDefang,
even if you do this as the same user.

The config file used by MimeDefang is probably /etc/mail/sa-mimedefang.cf.
The default file in the MimeDefang distribution contains the following
lines:

   # By default, SpamAssassin will run RBL checks.  If your ISP already
   # does this, set this to 1.

   skip_rbl_checks 1
