Re: [SAtalk] BSD rc.d script and HTML spam

I'm a FreeBSD committer. The right answer is to have spamassassin, when it is invoked as a daemon, write its pid out to a file called /var/run/spamassassin.pid. Do not use killall. I would suggest adding a command line option to spamassassin to do this, and then having /usr/local/etc/rc.d/spama

It seems the SA 2.01 rules missed the unique ID in the subject and body here, as well as the removal instructions. Maybe this points to possibilities for spam phrases for things like "viagra pharmacy", "no hassle", "reasonable prices", "fast delivery", "check out the site", "highest quality"?
