I'm not running spamd-setup.
/etc/rc is tho. once, during boot; after it loads spamd, /etc/rc
unconditionally fires of spamd-setup.
By default, spamd is stuttering for 10 seconds, but watching
/var/log/daemon, I also noticed that connections from spews and other
lists are lasting for over 400 seconds.
well, if they're from lists that are in the default /etc/spamd.conf,
i bet $1 it's /etc/rc that is catching you by surprise.
because of spamd-setup being fired, spamd is populated with those
IPs and then they'll get the stutter forever and ever
Does spamd do anything else with /etc/spamd.conf besides set up white
and black lists?
Does this file effect the stutter or delay of connections?
nope; [/etc/spamd.conf] only affects what IPs get called 'black'
after the candidate IPs for spamd are filled in by the
':black:' stanzas and/or subsequently removed by ':white:' stanzas.
whatever's left after the fill up black, remove white business
gets sent to spamd as fill up spamd with these IPs.
/etc/spamd.conf, afaict, is also never read by spamd(8); see
above re /etc/rc G
