Worked. I am now scanning all the mail, the load average on the system is load averages: 0.83, 1.00, 0.98
spamd -u nobody -d -L and removed the spam.lock. Procmail is at about 60 processes per second but it seems to be clearing them quickly. Most email gets scanned in 0 or 1 second. I have seen some at 2 seconds. I have contacted mail-abuse and I am going to get a secondary of their zone files and run it locally for the DNS based lookup, and I think that it will be ok. brad On 17 Jan 2002, Craig Hughes wrote: > On Thu, 2002-01-17 at 12:29, brad wrote: > > :0fw:spam.lock > | spamc -f > > :0e > { > EXITCODE=$? > } > > and no there are not hundreds of spamc processes that I noticed.
