Memory Problems

I am having some serious issues where SA getting some rogue processes that consume large amounts of memory and CPU. During this time the server is very sluggish and takes a long time to even ssh to. Once I restart spamd resource utilization returns to normal. This happens close to once an hour o

Bayes Problems

I am having one heck of a time getting Bayes working with SpamAssassin. I am using postfix 2.2.2 and SA 3.00.2. Postfix is being ran as the user postfix. SA is being ran as postdrop. The following is the output from the syslog. spamd[22065]: debug: plugin: Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Hashcas

Performance Problems

I'm having a weird memory issue with one of our mail proxies that I am hoping to get some help with. We currently have 2 mail proxies that are set up identically. They run Fedora Core 3, postfix 2.1.4, and SA 3.0.X. SA was installed via perl's MCPAN. We are using a Foundry ServerIron to load ba

Header Settings

I am probably making this harder than what it is, but how do I enable the X-Spam-Report header for ham? Thank you, Tom

Directory Confusion

More Configuration Questions

I apologize for the questions, but this is how my Boss wants things done and who am I to argue with him.  I figure he will listen to me better if I have a creditable source, the SpamAssassin mailing list, backing me up versus me by myself.   Part 1: My boss is convinced that SpamAssassin

Configuration Problem

I am currently using a postfix/spamassassin mail gateway.  I have spamassassin getting individual required_hits from a MySQL data base.  I would like to be able to add to the header X-Spam-Deleteable YES of the socre is above 15 other wise add X-Spam-Deleteable NO.  The score is 10 or highe
