Happy Star Wars day everyone.
I'm having trouble with a fresh postfix + spamassassin + dovecot +amavis install on Debian Stretch.
Incoming mail is hung up in the queue with a "mail transport unavailable" error, until I manually run "postsuper -r ALL && postfix flush".
The only clue that anything is wrong is this error in mail.warn:
mail postfix/qmgr[16088]: warning: connect to transport private/spamassassin: No such file or directory
So I'm sure this is the culprit. I just have no idea what file/directory it's complaining about not being able to access. When I do flush the queue, spamassassin does it's job, and things are being properly filtered.
Here is my master.cf: https://pastebin.com/H7D50YpL
Output of "ps aux | grep spam":

According to this article https://www.binarytides.com/install-spamassassin-with-postfix-dovecot/, when I run "netstat -nlp4 | grep spam" I should see spamc listening at 127.0.0.1:738, but I don't get anything listening on that port at all.
Although a "sudo netstat -l4 | grep spam" does return this:
tcp 0 0 localhost:spamd 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
Again, I'm sure spamassassin is holding up the show here.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!
