[4.021] SMTP proxy spamassassin: no Callouts?

Having enabled both "Sender verification" and "Use callouts", I wonder why the spamassassin daemon always runs with the --local flag:

26791 ? R 0:04 /spamassassin/spamd.exe -d -u exim --noadd-from --local

Does this imply that Astaro does the callout not from within spamd.exe, or is this simply a bug an no callouts are ever done whatever the setting in Webadmin is?

I have toggled the two relevant options and restarted spamd several times, but "ps ax" contiues to show spamd with --local.

This is different in V5beta2/V4.711 (which uses spamassassin 2.63)

The startup script /etc/rc.d/smtp indeed starts spamd always with option --local, regardless of any configuration settings:

chroot /var/chroot-smtp /spamassassin/spamd.exe -d -u exim --noadd-from --local >/dev/null 2>&1 || ret_code=1

Do I miss something?

no you don't. Spamassassin is responsible for spam checking only. Sender (or better domain) verify and user callouts are done by exim itself.
