Dear Greg, > Some users have had problems with corrupt AWL database after upgrade of > Spamassassin. Try disabling AWL to see if that is your issue. I'm totally new to the list and I don't know 3.0.2 so I'm not sure how helpful this is going to be, but anyway. I had a similar problem when upgrading from 2.55 to 2.64. Spamd would immediately eat all available memory and then some, which resulted in continuous swapping, bringing the machine to a grinding halt. Best of all, spamd in the end did not tag the message at all. For me, what helped was starting spamd in debug mode and realizing that it got stuck in the DB_File (or was it File_DB?) perl module. I updated the module from CPAN, and voila, problem gone.
