-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm having a problem in that I have spamd started by /etc/init.d/spamassassin with the "-d -c -u" parameters, but everytime the email client starts the filter (in KMail, using a filter that just pipes the email into "/usr/bin/spamc" with no parameters), it starts a brand new spamd process.
The output from ps is below, both before an email arrives, and during (wasn't a trick to catch it during, since /var/log/mail/info reports spamc taking anywhere from 15-30 seconds PER EMAIL). My questions are: WHY is it taking so long to process each email? And WHY does it start a new spamd process? I thought spamd was a "server" of sorts, and would just process each request from spamc as it came in??? Thanks for any answers! BEFORE: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Conduit]$ ps ax | grep spam 12223 ?
