some days ago we had a system crash and after the reboot spam assassin stopped working, after some indagation i've found that spamassassin itself is working but the mta is not issuing it (emails are not my best playground)
So i thought at the last update where postfix taken place instead of qmail and my switch back to qmail
so i've done

Code: Select all

rpm -q postfix
found a pakage istalled

Code: Select all

rpm -q qmail
no package found

Code: Select all

rpm -q psa-qmail
found one

Code: Select all

rpm -q qmail-scanner
nothing found

so i'm doing

Code: Select all

yum remove postfix
yum install qmail-scanner
do you think this should be usefull ?

ok i'm going with my instinct but i still want an answer (if possible) from someone more expert than me

so i've done passages up there and also done

Code: Select all

ln -sf /usr/share/qmail-scanner/qmail-scanner-reconfigure.psa /usr/bin/qmail-scanner-reconfigure
qmail-scanner-reconfigure
output was:

Code: Select all

Reconfiguring spamassassin settings: Done
Configuring qmail-scanner: OK

just to double check, make sure spamd is running before you run qmail-scanner-reconfigure.

Also the bugfixes are in for qmail-scanner on plesk 9 in the atomic-testing channel, version 2.08-1. Please test!

yes, i've seen it a lot of times there and running when i was tring to figure out what was going on, btw i've done

Code: Select all

ps ax | grep spamd
resulted in a spamd and two spamd child
i've executed this command after reconfiguring but i can say with a 85% of chance that it was already running.

i've qmail-scanner-2.06-1.el5.art so i think i'm testing the one from you repo

the eMail are being marked again with spam headers looks like that worked.
