Re: Fwd: [vps-mail] spamd - spamassassin

[Karen Tossey <karen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tim,

I am successfully running spamd on two VPSB servers and find it much 
more efficient than the Spamassassin vinstall. On both servers, with 
Spamassassin, I was receiving out of memory messages.

Scott has provided wonderful, vital information here regarding spamd:
http://www.perlcode.org/tutorials/spamassassin/spamd_vps.txt

The README on spamd is here:
http://spamassassin.taint.org/full/2.6x/dist/spamd/README.spamd

Also useful to me was the entire thread in the vps-mail archives 
Question About Spamd that included how to restart spamd:
http://www.perlcode.org/lists/vps-mail/msg00094.html

I believe spamd has a problem with Perl 5.005_3 and an upgrade will be 
necessary if you're running that version.

I have not implemented MySQL with it and can't help with that portion.

HTH,

Karen
