I got an obvious spam a little while ago that got scored "X-Spam-Status: No, hits=? required=?" so I looked up the message in the system log. Check out line 5 below (server killed by SIGTERM):

When I run sa-update --debug --checkonly I get this: [25521] dbg: dns: 8.1.3.updates.spamassassin.org => 507739, parsed as 507739 [25521] dbg: channel: current version is 507739, new version is 507739, skipping channel [25521] dbg: diag: updates complete, exiting with code 1 This sigterm death seems to happen usually a couple of times a day (sometimes it doesn't happen for days). I searched a bit and found a bugzilla thing for something similar last week, but I don't think this is the same error. If anyone has any idea...
