spamassassin: not scanning mails on port 783
HI I had installed my Spamassassin on a linux box ( cent os ) to scan mails from a windows "Smatermail" server and so far it was working good, but suddenly it started giving the following error : Fri Feb 29 00:12:49 2008 [27218] info: spamd: handled cleanup of child pid 19811 due to SIGCHLD Fri Feb 29 00:19:18 2008 [27218] warn: prefork: retrying syswrite(): Resource temporarily unavailable at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin/SpamdForkScaling.pm line 729.

Are all your connections to spamd coming from hosts in 216.185.*.*, and NONE from the local machine (127.0.0.1)? You might want to change to -A 216.185.,127.0.0.1
