Since I had problems of some mails getting missed, I stopped the spam checks on
my mails. However, I am getting this log in my maillog

"connection attempt to spamd aborted after 3 retries"
Mar 28 06:57:00 <hostname> spamc[25450]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1
failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Connection refused
Mar 28 06:57:01 <hostname> spamc[25450]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1
failed, retrying (#2 of 3): Connection refused
Mar 28 06:57:02 <hostname> spamc[25450]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1
failed, retrying (#3 of 3): Connection refused

Is there a possibility that mails will get missed after this log? My MTA shows
the status as mail sent.

One of my user again started complaining that her mails are missing. I suspect
this log. I have no clue about from where spamc is running.

Please advice.
