Hey all.  This morning, with all the noise regarding Osirusoft going
down, my mailserver very nearly fell over.  This was partly due to the
sudden spike in perl processes being opened.

Well, I'd like to see what can be done to move to spamd/spamc, but
I'm a little rusty with some of this stuff.

Right now, users all invoke spamassassin from ~/.procmailrc (as
themselves), then categorize and file tagged mail appropriately
afterward.  Users also have their own user_prefs, which I am aware can
be enabled in local.cf.

As I understand it, spamc can be used as a drop in replacement for
spamassassin, since spamassassin is run as the user from procmail.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.  The only flag used for spamassassin
from .procmailrc is -a.

What about the case where spamd can't be reached?  I'd like to
fallback to the old spamassassin behavior if spamd can't be reached.

And finally, I really need confirmation on the following before I do
this: does spamd/spamc use per user bayes databases?  This is really
important, since what is spam to the rest of my users and myself is
typically very different.

Anyone have any suggestions here?

TIA
Lou
