Cheryl, Dan and rest of list. So there are a few of us that have spamd's sitting there after spamc has timeout on something nasty, taking up loads of processing power.... Not just me which makes me feel a bit better.
Do you two use bayes and do you have single processor or SMP systems? I have upgraded all the perl modules and it has still done it - this is my local.cf file rewrite_subject 1 spam_level_stars 1 subject_tag *POSSIBLE_SPAM* use_terse_report 1 skip_rbl_checks 1 ok_locales en ja ko th zh dcc_add_header 0 required_hits 5.5 use_bayes 1 #use_bayes 0 auto_learn 0 bayes_auto_learn 0 #auto_learn 1 #bayes_auto_learn 1 #bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam 9 #bayes_auto_learn_threshold_ham 0.3 whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] .... and about 50 more like this. a bit of a mish mash of stuff since 2.4 i guess but all works if I set bayes 0 :\ Dan, maybe it is looking in that dir cause the mta user has a home dir set to /Users/admin/ - my system side stuff is kept in /home/qscand/.spamassassin/ fwiw.

I get the same one or two spamd processing just sitting there. I also eventually need to go in an manually kill these processes. I am currently running SA as my mta user. If I lint my config files I get the following: [firewall:~] admin% sudo -u mta spamassassin --lint -D debug: Score set 0 chosen. debug: running in taint mode? yes debug: Running in taint mode, removing unsafe env vars, and resetting PATH debug: PATH included '/bin', keeping. debug: PATH included '/sbin', keeping. debug: PATH included '/usr/bin', keeping. debug: PATH included '/usr/sbin', keeping. debug: Final PATH set to: /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin debug: ignore: using a test message to lint rules debug: using "/usr/local/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir debug: using "/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir debug: using "/Users/admin/.spamassassin" for user state dir debug: mkdir /Users/admin/.spamassassin failed: mkdir /Users/admin/.spamassassin: Permission denied at /Library/Perl/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 1272 Cannot write to /Users/admin/.spamassassin/user_prefs: No such file or directory Failed to create default user preference file /Users/admin/.spamassassin/user_prefs debug: using "/Users/admin/.spamassassin/user_prefs" for user prefs file debug: using "/Users/admin/.spamassassin" for user state dir debug: mkdir /Users/admin/.spamassassin failed: mkdir /Users/admin/.spamassassin: Permission denied at /Library/Perl/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 1272 No such file or directory debug: bayes: no dbs present, cannot scan: /Users/admin/.spamassassin/bayes_toks debug: Score set 1 chosen. debug: Initialising learner debug: bayes: Not available for scanning, only 0 spam(s) in Bayes DB < 200 debug: bayes: 12764 untie-ing debug: bayes: 12764 untie-ing db_toks Now I do not understand why SA is looking in /Users/admin for the user state directory?
