I was able to start spamd using:

None of the Mac OS X perls seem to implement the set*id() functions. It's heavily recommended you compile up your own perl with support and use that instead.



Well, all I did was follow the upgrade of Perl instructions here: http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/perl.html and used:
# you want to install Perl the same way Apple did:
./Configure -de -Dprefix=/usr [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]


And I downloaded Perl 5.85

But as mentioned, starting without the user started correctly. Not sure it it's also worthy to note but we also saw this error:
"Failed to start spamd. Result too large."


What's "...Result too large." imply?
