Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): spamassassin-3.1.0-5.fc5.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /sbin/service NetworkManager stop, /sbin/ifdown eth0, or whatever turns off your network connectivity 2. /sbin/service spamassasin start (or restart, if it's already running) Actual results: Starting spamd: [FAILED] Expected results: Starting spamd: [ OK ] Additional info: This worked fine in Fedora Core 4. This makes it very painful to use spamd on a laptop that uses NetworkManager and fetchmail. After a reboot, all the spam gets through, so I had to switch back to spamassassin, which is much slower and uses tons of CPU. I imagine it could also be a problem on servers that reboot if the network is down transiently (e.g., coming back after a power outage, network equipment not fully back yet). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
