HI
I had installed my Spamassassin on a linux box ( cent os ) to scan mails
from a windows "Smatermail" server and  so far it was working good, but
suddenly it started giving the following error :

Fri Feb 29 00:12:49 2008 [27218] info: spamd: handled cleanup of child pid
19811 due to SIGCHLD
Fri Feb 29 00:19:18 2008 [27218] warn: prefork: retrying syswrite():
Resource temporarily unavailable at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin/SpamdForkScaling.pm line
729.
Fri Feb 29 00:19:18 2008 [27218] warn: prefork: syswrite(16) to 15822 failed

Fri Feb 29 00:19:19 2008 [27218] warn: prefork: retrying syswrite():

/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin/SpamdForkScaling.pm line
697.

i then killed the spamd daemon and restarted spamd with the following
command

 /usr/bin/spamd -d -u spamassassin -c -i -A 216.185. -H --max-children=7
--max-conn-per-child=128 -s /var/log/spamd.log
--virtual-config-dir=/vhome/%u/spamassassin -r
/var/run/spamassassin/spamd.pid -r /var/run/spamassassin/spamd.pid

( following are my logs )

Fri Feb 29 00:28:21 2008 [20110] info: prefork: child states: II
Fri Feb 29 00:28:53 2008 [20110] info: spamd: server killed by SIGTERM,

Fri Feb 29 00:28:57 2008 [20182] info: prefork: child states: II

But now the mails are not being scanned , any idea why is this happening  ?

thanks a lot !!
