Alternatively, you can write your own script. This is the one I use.
Location is /usr/local/etc/rc.d/01spamass.sh. The -s local0 adds the
ability to log spamd to syslog (provided you've set up the syslog.conf
file to add the following line
local0.* /var/log/spamd.log)
================================================
SCRIPT_NAME="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/01spamass.sh"
DAEMON_NAME="Spam Assassin"
DAEMON="/usr/local/bin/spamd --max-children=20 -d -x -u daemon -s local0"
RETVAL=0
start() {
# Start SpamAssassin in daemon mode
echo Starting ${DAEMON_NAME} ...
${DAEMON}
RETVAL=$?
echo
}
stop () {
# Stop SpamAssassin
echo Stopping ${DAEMON_NAME}
kill `ps ax | grep spamd | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
RETVAL=$?
echo
}
# OK, let's start
case "$1" in
start)
start
;;
stop)
stop
;;
restart)
stop
start
RETVAL=$?
;;
*)
echo "Usage: ${SCRIPT_NAME} {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
