Hi all,
 
How do I go about keeping spamd from running it is killing my server 
and making dups go all over the board.  I have 5 new servers coming 
and just need to get this corrected quickly.  Do i just take out the 
spamd portion of my smtp run file?
 


I'd turn it off in simscan:
/var/qmail/control/simcontrol
:clam=yes,spam=no,spam_hits=14,attach=.src:.bat:.pif

Hello
you also need to tell simscan not to check for spam
by disabling it here  /var/qmail/control/simcontrol et rebuilding the 
cdb ( /var/qmail/bin/simscanmk)

Don't forget to qmailctl cdb after changing the simcontrol file.

spamd will still run (as in processes running), but it shouldn't be doing
anything. I would expect the spamd log to end in
 info: prefork: child states: II
and then no more messages as mail is processed.

Are the spamd processes using any cpu? If so, I'd stop qmail then manually
kill any leftover processes, then start up qmail again.

Yep,
 
That got it stopped for now but my users are going to beat me if they keep 
getting tons of spam.  What I am looking to do is throw in linux cluster for 
strictly scanning.  does anyone know of a good how to to do this?
 
thanks
