Hi,
I have set my --max-child to 30 but I look at my logs and it appears
that this is not obeyed.
Here is my spamd options:
SPAMDOPTIONS="-d -m 30 -H"
Here is what I see in the logs:

It appears I hit 5 child processes as shown "child states: BBBBB "but
it doesn't want to go higher for some reason. Why is it stopping at
5 child processes when in spamd I specify 30.
Thank you,
Frank
