Description Daniel Kudwien 2007-09-07 00:44:02 UTC 
One of my servers freezed and crashed. There have been no other syslog messages
than from spamd and xinetd (which I suppose to be related to spamd failure).

3.2.3 has been installed a few days before. In front of that update, everything
worked fine. I'll post additional information if needed.

spamd is invoked with:

spamd -d -c -L

These are the only messages that appeared:
/var/log/warn:

I can't tell if http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5404 is
related to this issue. It's another platform, but log entries look quite
similar, although related to 3.1.8.

btw: The link http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/bugwritinghelp.html from the
'Enter Bug' intro text gives me a 404.

Sounds like failing hardware or memory constraints.
