Unfortunately I don't have any advice, but I have perhaps seen something
related. On my systems I have an extraordinary amount of connections which
are hanging around in the TIME_WAIT state:
$ netstat -at | grep TIME_WAIT | grep spamd | wc -l
$ 41
It might be possible that spamd is not finishing the conversation
with spamc properly or not closing TCP connections cleanly?
Regards,
Mark.
