My guess is (I am not an expert at it) this is the source of our
problem with the SPF query that can not be executed. The DNS socket
permission was denied in the first place and therefor no SPF query
is executed either.

That would explain one of the messages. What about the other three,
especially the one about "Error creating a DNS resolver socket:
Permission denied"?

Subject: Re: Spamd errors in syslog
It is a known open bug. I have seen this one a few time so far here
also.

We have noticed the following errors occasionally appearing in the
syslog (these are appearing in the general syslog as well as the
LOCAL2
log file):

We are also seeing these same errors, except for the "DNS resolver"
error, on a Solaris 9 system running SA 3.1.0. Any ideas on what
these
errors mean, whether they are serious, and how to fix them? We have
the
following Perl modules installed:
