Dear Tom, Thanks for the tips, and my knowledge of setting this stuff up is pretty limited, so I really appreciate this info! I'm running on Redhat 6.2 as of right now. Are there instructions somewhere for running spamd under daemontools? My qmail install runs under daemontools, but spamd is just running under the redhat service thing.
