Good Day,

We have an OpenBSD 4.3 machine that is acting as a firewall for our scanning service and has spamd employed (which we've been using ever since hearing Bob talk about it at BSDCan 2005).

Yesterday though, we had our first issue with it, for some reason about 4pm yesterday all of our entries in the spamd-white table disappeared? I suspected that it may have had something to do with the sync as I had spamd running with the -Y and -y flags, yet there is currently no other host on the network for it to sync with (though a redundant machine is in the works to be deployed very soon).

When we uncovered the issue this morning, I removed the -Y and -y flags and restarted the machine and it is now working correctly again, however I'm a little puzzled as to the source of this problem as I've scoured our log files and do not see any errors or alerts that I can attribute to this situation.

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Our spamd_flags were as follows (It is currently running without the - Y and -y):

-h 'scanner.netguardsolutions.net' -n 'netGUARD: Mail Protection Service' -G 15:4:864 -Y em0 -y em0 -M 66.159.122.14

Thank you
