you shouldn;t have to mess about with the rc.d stuff at all. you run spamd with the -b flag on the command line, or set spamd_black in rc.conf.local. then, following through the man page: spamd-setup(8) should be run periodically by cron(8). When run in blacklist-only mode, the -b flag should be specified. Use crontab(1) to uncomment the entry in root's crontab. hope that's clear. jmc
