I recently installed SA, but find that spamd sometimes hangs. Our mail server receives about 3500 emails a day with the following setup:
1.2 GHz AMD with 512MB RAM FreeBSD 4.5 Stable Exim 3.36 SA 2.11 Exim uses a pipe/filter transport to pass mail to spamc -> spamd spamd is launched with the following parameters: spamd -D -L -c -F 0 -d I only recently installed SA. About 3 - 5 times a day a spamd child process will hang. It will consume MAX CPU CYCLES and only stop after a kill PID. Most spam checking is done in less than 1 second. I've tried waiting for up to 3 hours for an exit, but the process is hung. Next I placed log commands in spamd to see where it's going wrong and found it to be the my $status = $spamtest->check($mail); line Spamd does return a value to exim near the beginning of the scan not the kill. 2002-04-30 03:59:11 172MqJ-000D0z-00 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: spamcheck transport output: An error was detected while processing a file of BSMTP input. 2002-04-30 03:59:11 172MqJ-000D0z-00 ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] D=spamcheck_director T=spamcheck: Child process of spamcheck transport returned 2 from command: /usr/local/sbin/exim Anyone else had this problem or got any ideas.
