Ok, I've googled and obviously I'm not finding the right solution..
But had to reinstall spamassassin on my os/x 10.4 box.
Followed http://developer.apple.com/server/fighting_spam.html .
But, my system is running out of memory, and it looks like Perl /
spamassassin is the cause . I've omitted everything but the Perl and
Spamassassin related entries:

65 perl 0.0% 3:41.24 1 15 387 1.43M- 233M- 56.9M- 391M
So what did I do wrong that's causing a Perl process to take up 391 megs?
Obviously, I'm only guessing it's spamassassin related, but that's
the only thing I can think of using perl. And I see a few google
reference to spamassassin and perl.
Any other information I can provide, please let me know.
Thanks.
Evan
