Yep, this is what I'm thinking. Easy solution... remove the SA cache
DB... Perhaps do it like "service MailScanner stop; rm
/path/so/SpamAssassin.cache.db;service MailScanner Start" (don't
remember neither name nor path:-)... Don't remeber if that is needed,
but ... better safe thansorry:)
MS will recreate it.
