Hey Mark,

I have restarted mailscanner, I don't have spamd running,
I thought the spamassasin perl module is used by mailscanner
to do the spamassasin rule checking? I see output when I run
spamassassin -D --lint.

Is it better to have spamassin running as a daemon and then
having it configured via postfix?
