This is either a disconnect between sa and the init script, or something =
broken in spamassassin.

Please post any relevant config snippets for spamassassin from your =
rc.conf.local -- it was previously the case but may have been fixed that =
the rc.d files would start it, but if you were running in debug mode, =
the rc.d files could not stop it or status it.

What does spamassassin --lint reveal?

What do you get if you try to start spamd manually with the stock args =
specified in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd
