That is absolutely correct. By design Q-S treats AV failures as serious and causes the e-mail to requeue until someone fixes the problem. OTOH, SA failing in any way just means the message cannot be tagged with a SPAM status. You can rely on your users to tell you when SA is down ;-) Seriously, tools such as supervise from daemontools can help auto-restart services when they die. That'd keep SA running. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
