encountered this problem before..

but only with a version of spamassassin over 3.0.x..

Downgrading to the old 2.64-Version of Spamassassin worked fine..

today i updated to SA3.0.2 and had into the MS-Conf

Max Children = 2

and encountered with ps -au | grep Mail

3 instances..but this seems to be ok..

as after MailScanner stop all this processes where gone..

maybe you should downgrade to SA2.64 or try the latest release of SA.

Greetings

Marcel
