I tried this with the latest CVS build that I just downloaded. Startup command is: /usr/local/bin/spamd -u nobody -m 10 -D -L The spamd process exits after properly processing exactly one request from spamc. I verified this by restarting/checking what i did multiple times. I can't imagine I'm doing something wrong. it just exits. Has anyone gotten this to work? I'm on Solaris 7. I also tried this without a space between the "-m" and the number of children expected. same results.
