Just to clarify the exim spamd config is as follows in the data section:
warn condition = ${if and{\
{!eq {${substr_0_6:$sender_host_address}}{161.74}}\
{< {$message_size}{20K}}\
}\
{1}{0}}
spam = exim
message = X-New-Subject: **SPAM** $h_Subject:
log_message = found spam score over threshold ($spam_score
($spam_ba
r)) Sender=\'$sender_address\' Subject=$h_Subject
accept
# End of ACL section

Subject: spamd connection timing out
We are running exim with spamassassin on our gateways and on exim
paniclog I am seeing this message:
spam acl condition: error reading from spamd socket: Connection timed
out on a regular basis (may be once every 10 - 15 mins).
We have the following setting for spamd:
/usr/bin/spamd -d -x -m 30 --max-conn-per-child=150 --timeout-tcp=30
--timeout-child=200 --socketpath=/var/run/spamd_socket -u exim -r
/var/run/spamd.pid
On /var/log/mail, I get the following:
spamd[11077]: prefork: child states: BBBB
spamd[11077]: prefork: child states: BBBBI
spamd[11077]: prefork: child states: BBBII
Still a long way off 30 children
For exim we have:
local_scan_timeout = 10m
receive_timeout = 0s
rfc1413_query_timeout = 0s
smtp_receive_timeout = 12m
I have seen that other people had this problem as well.
Any idea of what to do?
Regards
Sujit
