-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Here's what I've uncovered. If you're running spamd with the -c option, it tries to write an individual prefs file. But, if the user is over quota, spamd can't do so (since it's now running with the user's prevs).
Note, however, that this failure is not logged even with the -D option to spamd. Further, it looks like spamd bails on such a failure and returns the email unchanged. Maybe something to look at for the current CVS code?
