Having an issue with spamd terminating abnormally. The server is

All the spamd processes actually terminate? Not end up like zombies or
stop responding?
spamd is started with the following:
-d -r ${pidfile} -m 15 -i 127.0.0.1 -p 783 -s /var/log/spamd.log
The ${pidfile} is set from within /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd.
I've checked through the spamd.log file created and can not find
anything to indicate why this is happening.
I've also made sure 'spamassassin --lint' comes out clean.
I do use sa-update and had to remove the rules that I loaded into
/usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin as they were causing a conflict.
That conflict wasn't visible until after I started logging.
What kind of conflict are you talking about here?
If there is something I'm missing, please point out what. Thanks.
After how many messages does spamd exhibit the problem? How many
children are running? Are you using pre-forking or round-robin?
Does-rescanning the last message processed by each child, or at least
the very last message to be scanned, cause the problem to happen again
(after you've restarted spamd, of course).
