Jake, Thanks for the reply. I found that a script had been setup on this machine to do an rsync with a "delete-after" parameter and included in this was the "/var/qmail" directory. When this script ran it was trying to delete this directory while it was in use. I have changed the script and all is well.

I then followed the steps on the wiki for recompiling chkuser to allow "/" for Blackberry emails. After I issue a "qmailctl start" I started receiving the following error: spamd~: unable to open supervise/ok: file does not exist The really strange thing (at least to me) is that the /var/qmail/supervise/spamd directory changed to /var/qmail/supervise/spamd~ (notice the"~" at the end). I deleted this directory and then re-installed the Spamassassin rpm. This put back the /var/qmail/supervise/spamd directory and "qmailctl stat" showed spamd running correctly. After about a minute this directory was rename to /var/qmail/supervise/spamd~ and I get the errors again. Any help or pointing in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks, Stephen T. Woodfin So what is different with your installation that deviates it from the standard? Do you have a script or something running somewhere?
