I am getting many many pop these errors:

How fun... A segfault: something in a worker spamd process ( a child of
the master spamd process reporting the error) tried to access a
completely bogus memory address.
IMHO spamd shouldn't segfault in anything like normal circumstances.
It's a Perl script, so most of the easy ways to segfault are blocked by
how how Perl interprets and precompiles the script.
It doesn’t appear to be affecting mail delivery, but still, I’d
like to avoid them.
Is any scoring being done?
I have spamass-milter running:
/usr/local/sbin/spamass-milter -f -p /var/run/spamass-milter.sock -u
spamd -r 10 -i 65.121.55.40/29 -i 127.0.0.1 -e covisp.net
And spamd:
/usr/local/bin/perl -T -w /usr/local/bin/spamd -c -Q -u spamd -H
/var/spool/spamd -d -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid
Though o don’t recall how those options are set (they are not in
rc.conf like spamass-milter)
That's the normal place on FreeBSD, but you might have set options in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd
and I’m not sure why it is passing -Q since I currently;y do not
have an SQL database setup for Spamassassin.
That COULD cause a segfault, I suppose... Still a bug, arguably, but
with an easy and obvious workaround.
Asmyway, the -Q flags says it needs -x which is not there, so I
suspect this config is wrong, even if it is not the cause of the above
issue.
Yes. You should definitely fix this. It's local config.
👹 # spamassassin -D
That will not touch spamd. To get spamd to emit debugging info, you
would need to add '-D' to spamd_flags in rc.conf or wherever the args
are being set.
