That does not logically necessarily follow. It would only follow if *only* possibilities were "some bug outside of spamassasssin ALWAYS triggers" and "some bug outside of spamassassin NEVER triggers". There however also exists the possibility that "some bug outside of spamassassin ONLY SOMETIMES triggers - depending on some yet undefined condition (timing, race condition, specific thing produced by SA4 but not SA3, etc.)" In which case, the problem might be something other than SA4, but which triggers (only or just much more regularly) in conjunction with SA4. But of course, it very well could be SA4. To test, I'd use "strace -ff -o /tmp/log.txt -e file -p $PID" to determine which process exactly is creating which files, and which process is removing them, both on SA3 and SA4 machines, and see which process creates something which it then doesn't remove. > Again it says that spamassassin-4.x deletes teporary files but not all and > it creates more than it deletes That could be one of the possible reasons, yes. > It seems as if for some reason specific files (e-mails) could not be deleted If that is indeed the case, first step would be finding out exactly which files are not being deleted (and by whom). Another way to prove that the problem is exclusively in spamassassin is to reproduce the problem ONLY with spamassassin (i.e. without dovecot, amavisd, etc. being involved at all) - e.g. by manually running "spamassassin -t /tmp/blah.mbox" and showing that it creates and leaves behind some temporary files. -- Opinions above are GNU-copylefted.
