Using procmail without MTA glue is OK for many uses. I am wondering
how many spamd connections you allow and if you have checked your logs?
I also cannot remember but the uses of a lock file seem odd for
something that can thread. Any one know if that is a good idea to
remove?

Hi,
apologies for the delay in my response...
I wonder if you could explain in simple terms what the lockfile
achieves in this situation? Is it even possible that it could cause
messages to bypass SA?
I don't think a lockfile achieves anything because it's a call to a
program. Procmail has some weird syntax so hopefully someone with
some procmail-fu can tell us if a lock on a procmail system call does
anything. In the meantime, here's a good resource about procmail and
lockfiles:

BTW, I followed the example detailed at
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/UsedViaProcmail (see "How do I use
SpamAssassin with procmail?") for my implementation...
