Dear RW,
Thank you for your clear explanation and for instructions for fixing the
incorrect notice.
I've followed up by submitting a ticket to get the instructions updated for
the current WHM.
I will also follow up with the support teams for the other products.
Some of the other responses here seemed a bit nasty, but you haven't
pretended to knowledge you didn't have. I'm appreciative, satisfied, and
gone.
David

LFD is a monitor that detects processes that have been
running too long. That's about all it does.
"spamd" is the daemon of SpamAssassin which actually
does the job. And it is the purpose of a Unix-daemon to
run long - ideally from boot up until machine shutdown
(years later ....) without restart.
It's actually a child process, which isn't supposed to
run forever. However, from Google:
