I've now tested this change to the systemd file and it makes it work
as expected.

Can you please add this fix as an update to bookworm.

Bug#1034347: spamd timeout after reboot: dns: bad dns reply: bgread: recv() failed

[Martin Michlmayr]

Package: spamd
Version: 4.0.0-4
Severity: important

After upgrading to bookworm, I'm getting timeouts from spamd.  This is
solved by:

sudo systemctl restart spamd.service

I have to do this after each reboot.

getmail tells me that procmail (which calls "spamc") time outs:

Delivery error...  child operation error: waiting child pid 24988 timed out)

The log show:

A Google search has led to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1985587
The proposed patch seems relevant to Debian's spamd service file too:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/spamassassin/pull-request/12#request_diff

(I haven't tested it, though.)
