I'm not sure about condrestart but any changes you make to the local.cf file won't be applied until you restart the SA service. --lint reads the settings in from the local.cf and associated files as if SA was running with those settings, not as SA is running at that point. I deal with restarts by having multiple SA servers running, if my MTA can't get a response out of the 1st it goes to the 2nd and so on. If you are getting that much spam through, you could stop your smtp service or shut port 25 temporarily while SA restarts. Hope that helps Nigel
