Is it just me and my configuration, or does others also have problems with this port? What happens is that when I restart the server everything works just fine. Spam is filtered out and tagged, and everything is peachy. Some time later, I find that I have multiple spamd daemons running and the maillog reports timeouts from spamass-milter. How long it takes from boot to failure varies. Sometimes it runs for a day or two, and sometimes it runs for an hour or two. System: ------- * FreeBSD 4.6.2 (tracking RELENG_4_6 tag) * Sendmail (default version), set up to deliver mail to Cyrus IMAP * fetchmail, popping mail from multiple POP3 accounts and delivering to Sendmail through SMTP * spamass-milter (from /usr/ports/mail/spamass-milter), called from my .mc file like this: INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamass-milter.sock, F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m') Everything is up to date through cvsup/portupgrade, and apart from the Cyrus delivery my .mc file is pretty much vanilla/default. The rc scripts to start spamd and spamass-milter have not been changed. Mail throughput is less than 500 per day (just my private mail which includes about a dozen or so mailing lists). /Daniel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
