With all due respect, I see *nothing* that indicates *any* sort of dns issue here. The problem is that the Spamassassin installation is trying to create temp files in a very non-standard directory, as Eric said in a prior post.
I would guess the build is just plain messed up - what does rpm -ql Spamassassin-toaster say? Inspect the rebuild output closely after. Do not rebuild it as the root user. If I were you, I would re-rpmbuild, and also run chkrootkit, and/or rkhunter... many people (still!) compile things as root. That is a very bad thing, qmail or no. :( Regards, jp > -----Original Message----- > From: Roxanne Sandesara [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2008 8:24 PM > To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com > Subject: Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Soft Rejections > > No, nothing in the blacklists file.
