You need to wait for all of spamd's children to die, including all of the
spamc's. This can take a while on a busy and/or slow server. This works
for me most of the time:
#!/bin/bash
PID=`awk '{print $1}' /var/run/spamd.pid`
kill -TERM $PID && wait || echo "ERROR!"
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/spamd.sh
exit
