   Signal 11 is a segmentation violation.  That means the program  
crashed because
it tried to access data outside of the applications memory space.   
It's a bug in
code, either in spamprobe or some library that spamprobe is compiled  
with.

   If you can run it under a debugger, you may be able to find out where
the SEGV is being caused.
