This was affecting me as well. I was able to start spamd with the -D option and it would stay running, but really didn't like all the debug messages. I wrote to the port maintainer as well. Never received a reply. Maybe we can get this fix in permanently. I would hate to portupgrade a few months down the road just to realize this fix was reversed. -Troy --gKMricLos+KVdGMg Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9tE/Sw9QklSuxpNMRAjdOAKCJzM6/nwiGOQd0FIDLzy+cXiAQXgCcDD+M ZiKoogCWOug/IstOAMiSwb8= =vh5g -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --gKMricLos+KVdGMg-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
