Re: After starting spamd, spamc fails to connect to it and spamd stops running!?
After all that it seems my problems were related to having changed versions of perl and spamd's inability to find the new libraries on it's path.

I've recently had a working sitewide install of spamassassin stop working and it's very upsetting! :( Wotcher Hugh :) Do you have any monitoring task scanning port 783 ? There's a bug in spamd in 2.6x, whereby opening a socket and closing it without a transaction makes it crash. Failing that, try using the -D option for debug messages and see if anything shows up there. Nick
