Just to be clear... when spamd-setup is run in /etc/rc, with the -D flag, it doesn't actually stick around, right? It just does its job in the background so that grabbing updated black/whitelists can't hang the machine. And then the sample spamd-setup line in crontab runs it every hour, if it's a good idea for everyone to change it wouldn't it be a good idea to give an example that only runs e.g. once a day? -- Matthew Weigel hacker unique & idempot . ent
