It would be nice if spamc could read from a file as well as a pipe. In that case spamc could stat the file and figure out it's size in advance. In fact, it would also be nice if spamd could do that same thing. 99% of us are running spamd on the same host as the MTA - so why the overhead of calling the network to pass the contents of a file that is already on the local disk? The Qmail-Scanner SA support would really benefit from this. I'd get spamd to run as the same usercode that runs qmail-scanner, and it could just directly access the file on disk. ..Still need the network support though - I for one actually use it to allow a REALLY old Redhat 5.0 mail server to run SA via a spamd on a newer server :-) -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
