NDPM_File.pm / Locked message ?

ok.  It appears the problem is related to Spam Assassin.  (The whole setup
is acting flakey, but that's where the problems is RIGHT now)  The
NDBM_File.pm error comes up as spamassassin starts. (And every once in a
while after that)

The Locked message output... I searched in the revision that I had installed
and it was not commented out (most likely the first release you posted).  I
re-downloaded the tar distro off the downloads page and that error is
commented now.

I am using the tar distribution on my system.
Would it be possible to name the tar releases to coincide with the revision
number like the RPM release is so we can tell if we've got the latest one
up?

Also.  Has the /etc/init.d/mailscanner script changed for v4?  The version I
have now (from a 3.2x rpm release) does not kill the daemon processes
properly (or at all).

That is someone else's bug. Not my problem (yet) :-)

I just searched all my code for that message, and the call to print it is
commented out in the latest code.

Is it still doing it with newest release?
Are you using the tar distribution or the RPMs?
