After testing, I find that when 'spamc' times out (-t), it breaks its connection with 'spamd' and reports back a ERRORLEVEL 74, IOERR.
However, 'spamd' appears to KEEP ON PROCESSING the message, even though the 'spamc' client has quit. When 'spamd' finishes, it reports back to the ./maillog (twice for some reason). By this time, procmail had exited with an ERRORLEVEL 75, TEMPERR has already requeued the original message in the deferred queue. Is there a way to make 'spamd' time out? Why doesn't the timeout of 'spamc' tell 'spamd' to quit? Is this a bug or a feature? <<Dan>> > -----Original Message----- > From: Smart,Dan > Sent: Friday, September 03, 2004 3:33 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Spamd abnormal handling of spamc timeout. > > > RH7.3,Postfix 2.1, procmail w/ SpamAssassin. > Using type 1 after-queue filtering. > > ===================================
