I put this on the command line, and immediately after restarting spamd, it gave me the following messages in /var/log/mail/errors: Oct 13 21:45:46 Dingo spamc[5596]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#3 of 3): Connection refused Oct 13 21:45:47 Dingo spamc[5596]: connection attempt to spamd aborted after 3 retries Oct 13 21:47:45 Dingo spamc[5606]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Connection refused Oct 13 21:47:45 Dingo spamc[5609]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Connection refused THIS is the main problem. Anytime I try to run as root, or any other user, it gives me these messages... I even took out my firewall to see what that did, and still got them. So I'm stumped... -- David A.
