An additional clue: left behind in the relevant user's .spamassassin directory is a file called "bayes.lock," containing only the machine name and pid which ends up running away with the memory. Clearly there's something going on with DB_File and the bayes operations, but I'm at a loss as to how to debug it further than that. I suppose I could turn off the bayesian learning as a temporary workaround. Adam -- "I went out to the kitchen to make coffee, yards of coffee. Rich, strong, bitter, boiling hot, ruthless, depraved.
