What happens without -H is that when spamd does a setuid() to another user (other than root) the environment variable $HOME which is passed to helper apps like razor is still pointing to root's home directory. Of course razor can't save its files in /root when its running as another user so it has to do its server discovery process for every single message. (which takes 3 to 4 seconds)
With -H razor can cache the results of its server discovery and only do it occasionally...
Makes sense....
Do most folks run as a different user or as root? I tried running it as spamd but then realized I'd have to change permissions on all the home directories and haven't take that leap as of yet.
If I remember correctly, Theo put a fix for this into 2.60-cvs...
I'll look for it on cpan when it becomes available...
Thanks again.
