Folks, we're running exim 4.51 on our mailhubs and scoring for spam via spammassassin on a separate server. We seem to have a problem with the SA server that causes connections from the hubs to fail. A typical error message is -
2005-11-07 03:19:41 1EYxVp-0006V8-Cw spam acl condition: error reading from spamd socket: Connection timed out We haven't managed to get to the bottom of the SA server problem which occurs between midnight and 4am. In the meantime I would like to minimise the effects of this. It seems that exim continues on through the acl list when this happens and the result is that the spam score headers are omitted on batches of messages received during such periods. I would like to be able to configure exim such that messages are deferred when this is happening. I've tried checking for null values of $spam_score_int but that does not appear to work. Is there any way of doing this?
