            Bug ID: 7643
           Summary: False positive DATE_IN_FUTURE
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.4.1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: FreeBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: spamassassin
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: Undefined

I'm seeing false positives from several of the DATE_IN_FUTURE family of tests. 
I believe I have found the fix, which will hopefully help you determine what
the real problem is.

I've been noticing it more since I brought up a new server with 3.4.1.  It may
have been there earlier, but I was not noticing it as much.

I believe almost (if not) *every* email passed through is showing a
DATE_IN_FUTURE.  I was seeing it with little scripts I've hacked up that did
not have a "DATE: ..." header line, so at first I suspected that was related. 
In the end I'm not sure.

I believe what's causing this is a mismatch between sa-spamd and
spamass-milter.  When I start seeing the problem, I will stop both these
deamons, and start them up again.  This *appears* to fix it for a while.

Now please note, that when this is happening, I am unable to a tidy shutdown --
'service spamass-mailter stop' will hang indefinitely.  I've tried 'kill',
'kill -HUP', no good -- only kill -9 works.  Then a 'service spamass-milter
start' will bring it back.  I have no idea if this failure to shutdown nicely
is related.
