Hello, I've some troubles with spamassassin. Sometimes (and i don't know why exactly) my server has high load (like 50 or 60 or more) so it's impossible to connect via ssh, everything crash (apache, qmail, vpopmail, etc...) and i have to go to the datacenter to reboot the server... and if i'm able to connect via ssh (after having waited 40 minutes...) i can see that perl or spamd are the processes which take the most part of the load (perl due to qmailscanner, who invoke spamassassin). I'm under a debian stable, i've installed spamassassin via package AND source... maybe it's because of this
In my syslog i've this just before it crashed : Jul 24 15:49:07 localhost spamd[16465]: spamd: result: . 1 - BAYES_00,SPF_HELO_SOFTFAIL,SPF_SOFTFAIL scantime=1169.8,size=4834,user=qscand,uid =0,required_score=5.0,rhost=localhost.localdomain,raddr=127.0.0.1,rport=44964,mid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,bayes=0,autolearn=no Jul 24 15:49:27 localhost imapd: DISCONNECTED, user=hebergement, ip=[::ffff:83.79.3.207], headers=398, body=99132, time=62494 Jul 24 15:55:47 localhost spamd[29579]: prefork: child states: BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBKBBBBBBBB Jul 24 16:03:18 localhost spamd[11444]: spamd: copy_config timeout, respawning child process after 1 messages at /usr/bin/spamd line 969.
