The socket you've told it to open (/var/local/spamass-sock, in this
case) already exists.  It won't start until you delete this file.

On a related note, is spamass-milter at all reliable for you?  I have
huge amounts of problems with it spinning off a ridiculous number of
sub-processess (spamass-milter and spamc) that never return.  I'm
considering figuring out why this seems so broken, if I can verify it's
not just my setup.
