Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.4.1-6
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Installed spamassassin. It was working fine. Rebooted computer, then exim was
failing to talk to spamassassin, making it non-functional for me.
/var/log/exim4/paniclog:
2017-04-09 13:08:27 1cxJ8N-0006o6-6p spam acl condition: all spamd servers
failed
In syslog, shortly after booting:
Apr 07 18:49:07 treetowl spamd[1126]: spamd: server started on IO::Socket::IP
[::1]:783 (running version 3.4.1)
I verified with netstat that spamassassin was only listening on ipv6.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
systemctl restart spamassassin
* What was the outcome of this action?
spamassassin started working.
I noticed in syslog the message from above now included listening on 127.0.0.1:
Apr 09 13:29:43 treetowl spamd[28578]: spamd: server started on IO::Socket::IP
[::1]:783, IO::Socket::IP [127.0.0.1]:783 (running version 3.4.1)
