Last week I made some changes to my rules and I performed -- lint which showed no errors..
Yesterday AM there was a HUGE influx of spam and I SSH'd in when I saw the loads jumping up. The first thing I did after verifying I had loads up over 30% was shut down exim, which normally brings the loads down very quickly.. yesterday it did not.. I had to do a reboot to accomplish the task.. when I went and looked at the maillog files when things calmed down I saw the following errors when exim (and consequently spamd, clamd, SA, blahblah) started back up. If -- lint showed no errors.. whats up with this???
