Strange things started yesterday w/ hotmail and exim with SA via exiscan.
my spamd seems as if it's being started by the spamd user, but then it
looks like its being called by root..
May 6 06:57:14 arsenic spamd[16374]: server started on UNIX domain
socket /var/run/spamd (running version 3.0.2)

And hotmail has been sending some *massive* dsn messages, which seem to
take forever.

Even tried moving back to a tcp socket.. just to see if it would make a
difference..

This is the relevant portion of my data acl:
accept
condition = ${if >={$message_size}{96k}{1}{0}}
drop message = ** Attention **\n \
This message has been rejected!\n \
This message has a SPAM score of: $spam_score points.\n \
Please call xxx.yyy.zzzz if you feel this message is in
error.\n \
[$sender_address from $sender_host_address ->
$local_part@$domain at $tod_bsdinbox]
spam = spamd
condition = ${if >{$spam_score_int}{100}{1}{0}}
log_message = [SA Reject] $spam_score
warn message = X-New-Subject: [SPAM] $h_subject:
spam = spamd
log_message = [SPAM] $spam_score
warn message = X-Spam-Info: Spam detection software,
warn message = X-Spam-Info: Has scanned this message. If this is
believed to be spam
warn message = X-Spam-Info: A tag has been added to the subject for
you own filtering purposes.
warn message = X-Spam-Info: Please call us at: (xxx) yyy.zzz if you
have any questions.
warn message = X-Spam-Score: $spam_score ($spam_bar)
warn message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
accept
I did lower the message_size check from 200k to 96k just to see if it
would make a difference. It just seems that hotmail messages are
killing the SA on the box.
As is clamd.
