Spamassassin became extemely slow after upgrade to latest version (2.55-2)
I just upgraded spamassassin from 2.53 to 2.55, and now it takes ages to download my email... I get my mail with postfix/kmail... before it wasn't fast, but it was ok... 100 messages in a minute or two. Now it takes one minute just for one message. I created a filter to select all incoming mail ant pipe it through spamassassin or spamc (with spamd running), and a second one to look at the headers for x-spam, etc. I dpkg --purged spamassassin and installed the previous version, but still it is too slow.

I think so... can you not use it?, or, is it worth using SA without it?. I have several BAYES_* files in my /home/user/.spamassassin folder, so I guess it is enabled. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I have 1376 characters, and the last time stam is fron yesterday... so I guess it has been running.

Spamassassin *will* take forever, but spamc/spamd don't. Consider dman's spamassassin/exim integration, it performs pretty well. - -- .''`.

BTW, has anyone else heard that Hormel is sueing companies over the "spam" name again? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I cannot be sure; but, recently, when I upgraded to v2.55-2, the slowness was un-bearable -- until I blew away ~/.spamassassin/* and re-learned everything!
