RE: SPAMD dies
I run into this as well, sometimes it will run along great, and then just out of the blue die with no reason or errors that I can find. Actually happened to me this morning, woke up to a pile of spam in my mailbox, and thought guess spamd died off, time to restart it. I have it running on FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x servers, and now actually 6.x servers, and all of them seem to do this from time to time, and have with any of the SA3.x releases up to the most current 3.0.4 version. FYI, I use procmail to invoke spamc and process via spamd, as sendmail uses procmail as my delivery agent. So though I don't have a solution, your sure not the only one that sees this happen.. :) --- Howard Leadmon -Original Message- From: Daryl C. W.

I am having issues with SPAMD just dying and no info being shown in the logs to help troubleshoot. The system is running Redhat 9, Latest versions of Exim spamassassin. Spamassassin uses pyzor, razor dcc. What latest version of SpamAssassin are you using? Have you (or a distribution maintainer) applied any patches to it? Daryl

Actually happened to me this morning, woke up to a pile of spam in my mailbox, and thought guess spamd died off, time to restart it. My SpamD didn't die literally, but would stop functioning, just seeming to hang when asked to classify spam. I am running on Cygwin and put it down to the OS-environment, but on testing the cvs snapshots (3.10pre4+) my initial, very brief evaluation (and hope) is that the problem is reduced (or eliminated.) -- Herb Martin
HOWTO build milter-spamc on Mac/X Tiger
Just as an update to those who have an interest, gcc 4.0 and higher will cause problems with milter-spamc release 0.25. The configure script puts in params that changed between gcc 3.x and 4.x (specifically the -fvolatile ). It also has a problem with the -V . gcc: argument to `-V' is missing cc1: error: unrecognized command line option -fvolatile Mac/X Tiger has the 3.3 compiler installed as well, although 4.0.0 is the default. Use gcc_select -force 3.3 to make 3.3 the default. Edit the configure script to make -o into -o (note the space). Otherwise it will error on /usr/bin/ld: unknown flag: -oconftest Now it will build (of course in this example I still have to make libmilter the Berkeley DB) Mutex: POSIX_API Shared Memory: POSIX_API Time.: BSD_API Berkeley DB..: not found libmilter: no CFLAGS...: -D_REENTRANT -g -Wall -fvolatile LDFLAGS..: LIBS.: -lpthread But at least it gets to the end without bombing out!!

Re[2]: Rule Advice
Hello dennis, Friday, July 15, 2005, 10:08:56 PM, you wrote: dsc On Jul 15, 2005, at 3:19 PM, Loren Wilton wrote: dsc If that username starts with six digits, it hits that rule, as shown dsc in Loren's example. dsc Ah, here is the From header: dsc From: 360° Skin Care [EMAIL PROTECTED] dsc Not 6 digits, but maybe the degree symbol is contributing.

Since the rule hit, I'm assuming this wan't dsc really in the original mail, but more like 10001monkeys or the dsc like. dsc Nope. It's a four letter name, like FRED. It didn't seem to dsc be relevant to include the real full email address. Please let me dsc know if you need it. dsc This is also why I asked if you were referring to the dsc Message-Id header since that is the only address that starts with dsc six digits. dsc I'm not sure what I keep misunderstanding. Can you elaborate? Nope. From these discussions, your email is hitting a rule that supposedly it should not hit. The code for the rule is very clear about what and where it should be hitting, and you claim it isn't there. The only way we can resolve this is if you send a full, untarnished, complete and unedited, email which demonstrates this problem, with all headers, as an attachment, to someone who can do the full diagnostics on it to figure out what's happening. I'm willing to be that someone if you want. Bob Menschel
