I've been trying out spamassassin ("spamassassin -P") for a few days
now.  It is really cool, but I managed to nearly kill my system when
my filter caused an infinite loop of error messages (I had like 8 or
so spamassassin processes running simultaneously).  I looked at the
docs for spamc/spamd and started spamd running.  I can "scan" a
message using spamc, but many messages that "spamassassin -P" catches
easily, spamc reports as flagging no tests.  For example, here's the
result from one such message

$ cat 1011540635.15043.dman.ddts.net | spamc | egrep "X-Spam|SPAM:"
X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0 required=5 tests=

$ cat 1011540635.15043.dman.ddts.net | spamassassin -P | egrep "X-Spam|SPAM:"
X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=24 required=5 tests=NO_REAL_NAME,PLING,HTML_WITH_
X-Spam-Flag: YES
X-Spam-Prev-Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII

My syslog has this relevant info in it :

Jan 20 13:28:13 dman spamd[11306]: connection from dman.ddts.net [127.0.0.1 ] at port 
35591
Jan 20 13:28:13 dman spamd[15800]: processed successfully for dman:1000 in   0 seconds.


What is wrong with spamc/spamd?  I've tried spamd both with and
without the "-d" option and spamc with no options.


BTW, the performance of 'spamc' does match the claims :

real    0m0.055s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.000s

compared to

real    0m1.440s
user    0m0.720s
sys     0m0.080s

TIA!
