Hah, wondered about the "when" myself. :) According to some brief man page cross-check, this changed to 500 kB for 3.2 -- the 3.1 spamc man page still shows 250 kB. > i know you can tell spamc a size paramenter, yet what i am wondering is > where else can this size parameter be set? > > local.cf ???? other? AFAIK, spamassassin and spamd will happily swallow whatever you feed it. No config option either. spamc by default doesn't pass along anything that's larger than the default 500 kB or whatever set by the options. Any other calling process also should ensure a sane max size. -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu...@ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
