Re: spamass-milter stops forking new childs?

[Dave Ellenberger]

Hi Stephan!

Yes, I used your restart-script (with kill -KILL cause the process which was
haning usually doesn't close with kill -TERM) in november 2002 on a other
server with ~120'000 mails/day, but it restarted spamassasin up to 3 times a
minute. That's just to much, so many mails were going through the server
unparsed (F=,).

How many mails is your mailserver parsing? Is 150'000+ just to much?

Anyone ever tried to create a redudant spamass-milter? I could setup 3 IP
aliases on the spamassassin-milter server and create a host with 3 IN A
records. Is this a stupid Idea? :-)

Dave,

Look at this bugreport :

(I have the same problem on 2 servers)

I'm running a script to check each minute if the milter is running ok,
and restarting if not.
