I'm not entirely certain that this is a spamassassin issue, but since
I can't find a more likely culprit I thought I'd check here...  We're
running SA 3.04 on Solaris 8.

This past weekend our mail relays started using up too much swap.
Looking in /tmp, I fould a bunch of files similar to these:

-rw-------   1 exim     exim     483245088 Jan 17 10:18 099b0003.$$$
-rw-------   1 exim     exim     479784296 Jan 17 10:18 099b0004.$$$

Some were as old as September or December, though most were from this
weekend.  The files all contain stuff like this:

-----
spamExperiments/lz78RWordsFile5.
ERROR: baesys not in spamExperiments/lz78RWordsFile5.

ERROR: :28 - not in spamExperiments/lz78RWordsFile5.

I can see obvious bits of Received: headers in there, but that's about
all that's recognizable.  Also, every one of them references the same
"lz78RWordsFile5" file.  I can't find that file anywhere, nor can I
find any reference to "spamExperiments" or the file anywhere.  I also
can't find anything in syslog, but I might just be missing it.

Any ideas?

K.
