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.
