Thomas Check you've done an sa-update after you installed 3.2.3.
There's a nasty bug with completewhois lookups in the default 3.2.3. Running sa-update turns off those rules. If you want those rules working then install the patch found in bug id 5589. But easiest 'fix' is run sa-update ;-) -- Martin Hepworth Snr Systems Administrator Solid State Logic Tel: +44 (0)1865 842300 > -----Original Message----- > From: Thomas Ledbetter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 20 December 2007 19:17 > To: users@spamassassin.apache.org > Subject: Upgrade to 3.2.3 introduced severe slowness > > > Hi.
