------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-04-12 09:09 ------- Sidney, Your analysis does make sense. persistent_udp clearly does have an effect for me, but as you say it may be incidental somehow - most likely the repeated calls to IO::Socket::INET->new. What is definitely the case though is that the source UDP port in tcpdump was observed to be repeated between the first query (using search) and the second (using bgsend). Whatever the problem, that's an unmistakable symptom. I've been looking through my /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/IO/Socket/INET.pm and sub configure has an interesting aspect: if($lport || ($laddr ne INADDR_ANY) || exists $arg->{Listen}) { $sock->bind($lport || 0, $laddr) or return _error($sock, $!, "$!"); } This would be an even better point to confirm for sure whether lport is set, or that bind gets called. Unfortunately I'm at work and can't check this myself with my test spamassassin at home. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
