I have occasionally seen spamd/c not even process an email that came through my server... most are scanned and tagged properly but every so often i will get one that waltzes on through.. anyone seen this before? have any ideas on cause and or solutions? thanks!
That *may* be due to the safe failure mode (-f) of spamc. If unable to process the message through spamd, it returns the original, unmodified message.
A few folks have reported similar problems lately. A couple of questions:
1. Are you seeing anything in common between the non-scanned messages (i.e. habeas headers)?
2. Have you tried sending the same messages through manually?
3. If you experience failures with 2, have you tried upping the spamc timeout if it's a busy server?
Just a few thoughts based on what I've seen so far.
