Last night my default gentoo RulesDuJour for Spamassassin acquired new Adult and General rule-sets from SARE. Thereafter spamd refused all connections and subsequently received mail was not spam filtered. Issuing '/etc/init.d/spamd restart' as root resolved the situation... but I don't want to have to do this every time a rule-set is automatically updated overnight.

Can it be attributed to Fcron or RulesDuJour or something peculiar to my setup? I don't understand the "process already running" messages from fcron - my cron jobs all seem to be executed normally. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
