I added --allow-tell in spamassassin.service and it works.

Memory exhaustion will also cause this if you softlimit your spam daemon
too low, the [74] is how spamc exited.

it makes the bash script verbose, its kind of debugging modus.

I allready know (realize) the EX_IOERR is an IO error. I'm
trying to figure out what is going on to cause it and what
exactly the system is trying to tell me that it failed on.
Could it not find the file? The directory? Read the file? As
you indicated the sysexits.h doesn't tell much.

What will the "set -x" do?

look for a file called sysexits.h. there you can get the meaning of error
codes. taken from a feroda sysexits.h:
EX_IOERR -- An error occurred while doing I/O on some file.
define EX_IOERR74  /* input/output error */

well, thats not much of information. but place a 'set -x' at the top of
your bash script, this might help discovering the problem.

Matthias

OK, I've uploaded it to my filestore, you can access it at:
http://mail.cnc.bc.ca/users/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/EX_IOERR/mailfilter.txt

I'm not sure it'll be a parameter as only about 7,000
messages failed out of 90,000. Unless its some kind of time
out... But thats the thing, I don't know what the error 70
means.

Ok, ok... I'll come to the rescue!  :)

I've fought this before.  I believe the problem was improper commenting
of user parameter passed via my perl script.  Can you show me your code
that calls spamc plz?

I'm using a script to pipe messages to spamc. Out of about
90,000 messages passed to spamc via the script about 7,000
failed with an error code of 74.

What does spamc mean by EX_IOERR?

Is this a failure between my script and spamc or something
else?
