"spamassassin time out" can be caused by slow dns lookups. I assume you are using the rbls in S.A., and not MailScanner? Are you running a local caching nameserver?

What do `vmstat` and `free` say? Any swap in use? If yes, get more ram. 1gb ram would be a good place to start for a MailScanner/SA with caching nameserver.

Hello forum,

Recently i have upgraded SA from 2.64 to 3.1.1 and everything was working
great except to the following:

1. I am getting from time to time errors in the maillog via MailScanner
"spamassassin time out". I once had that problem with the previous version
of SA and resolve that by adding memory to the PC (upgraded to 256 MB). Can
you advise how can i resolve the issue? since i cant add more memory to the
PC.

2. I run sa-update on my linux machine to update the rules and afterward run
spamassassin --lint. The output was a warning as follows "warn: config:
warning: score set for non-existent rule HTML_MESSAGE". I once added
HTML_MESSAGE to local.cf in order to set a higher score for that kind of
test and there was no problem. Is the specifc rule was removed due to the
update? How can i fix that?

Kindly regards,

Yossi
