Re: Do not issue temporary reject when spamd is unavailable.

I have no solution, but the same problem! Multiple copies when
restarting SA.

The problem with SA semms to be in the memory managment, so from time to
time SA just hangs, and the system partly crashing with it.

I just set up a cronjob to restart SA once a day, that helped so far.
