SuSE 8.1 Distribution, Postfix, spamcheck.py, spamassassin v2.43

Same Problems with amavisd-new, calling spamassassin via procmail,
spamc/spamd.


Some spamd-processes hang. I've found some tcp-sync with netstat and
one open udp-Port, that listened world-wide.

Yesterday i added "dns_available  no" in
/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, but today it hangs again.

Now I call spamd with the "-L" option.

man spamd:

 ---
|   -L, --local
|              Perform only local tests on all mail.  In other
|              words,
|              skip DNS and other network tests.
|              Works the same as the "-L" flag to spamassassin
