TJ, | I am working on implementing amavisd-new on my domain and had done some | testing and it was working great. yesterday I put it into a production | environment (causing it to get 100's more emails per hour) and after it | runs for awhile a process seems to hang and eats up nearly 100% of my | memory and causes the mail queue to start backing up. Memory? (not CPU?) And eventually fails due to exceeded virtual memory? The last time I saw it was with an old version of SA (before 2.63) and an older Perl (5.8.0 I suppose) - there was a bug in Encode::encode which ate memory when it saw tainted variable. | Any suggestions | as to what may be causing this and what I can do to fix it? Before the | process "hangs" it runs great and mail is processed VERY quickly. You may want to run with log level 5 for a while and try to catch it in the act - to tell whether it happens within a call to SpamAssassin, or elsewhere. If using SA older that 2.63, or Perl older that 5.8.1, please upgrade them first. Mark |
