Hi,

I'm using mailscanner on a busy mail gateways from serveral months, which
was working fine so far.From last few days I noticed incresed no of spam
mails as well log Filtering queues (ofcourse slow processing of
mailscanner).In log file of mailscanner I found following lines,

Sep 10 04:47:29 localhost MailScanner[11027]: Virus and Content Scanning:
Starting
Sep 10 04:47:37 localhost MailScanner[8400]: SpamAssassin timed out and was
killed, failure 8 of 20
Sep 10 04:47:37 localhost MailScanner[8680]: SpamAssassin timed out and was
killed, failure 14 of 20
Sep 10 04:47:38 localhost MailScanner[8680]: Message 1KdL6x-0005q5-L3 from
xx.xx.xx.xx (xxx at xxx.x) to xxx.xx is not spam, SpamAssassin (not cached,
timed out)
Sep 10 04:47:38 localhost MailScanner[8400]: Message 1KdLDG-0006se-Ox from
xx.xx.xx.xx (xxx at xx.xxx) to xxx.xx is not spam, SpamAssassin (not cached,
timed out)

it clealy indicates mailscanner is not (able to) scanning messages.

Any idea about this issue.

Thanks in advance :-)
