It appears that you (or someone) has installed the Spamassassin.py/spamd.py custom handler from <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/557991> and included it in the GLOBAL_PIPELINE or a lists' pipeline. The "Connection reset by peer" error is occurring while spamd.py is waiting for a response from the spamd daemon. I suspect this is occurring because of a time out. Prior to SA 3.3, there was no limit on how long spamd could take to process a message. If there were DNS issues with RBL lookups for example, there could be very long delays. SA 3.3 has introduced a 300 second time limit, after which it just returns what it found plus a hit on the TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED rule. See <http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/branches/3.3/build/announcements/3.3.0.txt>. If you have SA 3.3, you could configure a shorter time_limit and see if that helps. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
