HI
I had installed my Spamassassin on a linux box ( cent os ) to scan
mails from a windows "Smatermail" server and so far it was working
good, but suddenly it started giving the following error :
Fri Feb 29 00:12:49 2008 [27218] info: spamd: handled cleanup of child
pid 19811 due to SIGCHLD

i then killed the spamd daemon and restarted spamd with the following
command
/usr/bin/spamd -d -u spamassassin -c -i -A 216.185. -H
--max-children=7 --max-conn-per-child=128 -s /var/log/spamd.log
--virtual-config-dir=/vhome/%u/spamassassin -r
/var/run/spamassassin/spamd.pid -r /var/run/spamassassin/spamd.pid
( following are my logs )

But now the mails are not being scanned , any idea why is this
happening ?
Are all your connections to spamd coming from hosts in 216.185.*.*, and
NONE from the local machine (127.0.0.1)? You might want to change to -A
216.185.,127.0.0.1
