I'm currently running spamassassin 3.2.1-1~bpo.1 from the Debian
etch-backports branch (yes, I know that backports now has 3.2.4
available, and I'll be upgrading shortly).
On my installation, I'm calling SpamAssassin from MIMEDefang, and so I'm
not running spamc and spamd .
I just discovered that over the last several weeks, I'm getting an
accumulation of hidden .spamassassin temporary files accumulating in
/tmp, that aren't getting deleted, and as a result, that volume is
filling up.
I'm not aware of any operational changes that have been made, so this
one is puzzling.
I can easily set a cron job to find and discard the accumulation, but
I'd prefer to find the source of why these files are getting left in
/tmp, and fix the problem, rather than simply managing the symptoms.
Any idea of why this might be happening?
