will list the bottom 100 lines of the log. With that many error lines something is certainly wrong somewhere. Hopefully you have not been 'cracked' by a spammer.

Nah. :-) I took a look-see at Errors, and it was filled with nothing but DB errors (Berkeley database) ... my POPFile spam program uses Berkeley, and I'm assuming that one of the recent perl or other updates broke something my version of POPFile uses. I've temporarily disabled the spam filtering until I can sort it out (no biggie, since less than 0.005% of my incoming mail is spam, anyway, since I changed my address last year :-)


Thanks again Derek, and all, for your help. I go into panic mode when something happens on my system, I depend upon it so, and I've got just enough knowledge to get myself into trouble, it seems, so I usually need a steer in the right direction before I muck things up royally. :)
