If you look at the following output of "top" you will see that some
spamd processes runs under the ownership of "spamd" and others under
"root".  I would like to know why?

16930 root       9   0 37908  37M 16548 S    18.7  0.9   0:10 spamd
16927 root      11   0 83720  81M 16296 S    10.7  2.1   0:28 spamd
16929 spamd     10   0 74332  72M 16404 S     6.7  1.9   0:22 spamd
16931 spamd      9   0 38288  37M 16540 S     4.9  0.9   0:07 spamd
16928 spamd      9   0 42340  41M 16364 S     3.5  1.0   0:13 spamd


I have in /etc/init.d/spamassassin:

NAME=spamd
SNAME=spamassassin
DESC="SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon"
PIDFILE="/var/run/$NAME.pid"
PNAME="spamd"
