It is a good point and I would like to know the answer myself. I have not been using the -f flag. I have tested it though and if spamd is down, the message is still processed.

I can't see your entire Procmail script and I really don't understand the mechanics of your system. It looks like you are trying to pipe to spamc through a site-wide configuration. If so, how are you getting the username for the -u option? I can think of how to perform a sitewide Procmail/SA solution with a user-based Procmail/SA solution but that would ential sending the message through SA twice. There is then a way to perform a site-wide only solution as well as a per-user only solution. What are you really trying to do? My opinion . . . I think a combo site-wide and per-user solution is overkill. You should probablly stick to one or the other. Furthermore, I just don't see the need for a per-user solution unless you are forced to do it, like an ISP. Again these are just my opinions. If anyone has insight to counter my belief, I would love to be educated. --Larry ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
