Can't answer that, but I have found other spamd oddities that have driven me away from it back to just invoking spamassassin. (I have the cycles and don't have the volume, so it all works out.) I found that certain things didn't work, such as any of my special rules in any file except local.cf, razor2, surbl, etc. On a hunch, i changed my procmailrc to call spamassassin direct and everything started working like i expected. I've come to believe spamd is evil. ;-) -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
