I'll lean towards the increased load theory.  Server has stayed the same
since I decided to not pay any further tithe to IpSwitch.  I don't have the
'max-children' setting set at all, as the default config I went with worked
fine for ages.

"perl -T -w -S "spamd" --syslog-socket=stderr %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6" is what I
use to start it.

Thanks,
Sam

You  have  to  ask  yourself  the  ol' "What changed?" If your message
volume  has gone up, that could be overwhelming the number of children
your  SPAMD  was spawning. Under volume, I also find that having a lot
of  children  stay  waiting  is  better than having the same number of
children start/stop/start.

When  you  say  "1,"  are  you  really  talking  about children, as in
--max-children? Why would you do that?
