I am running Mailscanner-4.44.6 on a FreeBSD 5.4 box. This product is running extremely well in reducing the amount of SPAM entering our environment.
PROBLEM: Possible Database corruption. I've had this problem before. The first time I encountered this problem is when the spam database has around 3000 SPAM and about 10000 HAM, the database seems to become corrupt. I start to receive PERL errors. The only way around these PERL errors, was to rename the database and install a new starterDB and feed it spam all over again. After this, SA-LEARN continued to work perfectly and the PERL errors went away. I determined it must have been database corruption. The problem I'm having now is that SA-LEARN is hanging, it doesn't complete. The last successful SA-LEARN --dump magic indicated I had around 2000 SPAM. If I issue a SA-LEARN --spam --no-sync --mbox /var/mail/spam , SA-LEARN --dump magic , SA-LEARN --sync , SA-LEARN --force-expire Not one process ever completes. I let it go overnight and I have to kill the process manually. Is there a problem with the database when it reaches a certain size? Any ideas what to do or look for?
