Is this a Fedora created package from Fedora itself or did you compile
your own?  If Fedora related, make sure you have /etc/procmailrc file,
and that it has this below in it...

INCLUDERC=/etc/mail/spamassassin/spamassassin-default.rc (*may* need to
restart spamassassin after fixing if not)

Then you should also have /etc/mail/spamassassin dir as well.
