I just ended up with a bunch of spam in my inbox because Spamassassin
went belly-up for some reason. In my procmail log I see:
procmail: Program failure (-25) of "spamassassin"
What I don't understand is why procmail continued delivering the
email instead of bouncing back to the mailer/exiting with an error.
I'm calling spamassassin like this:
:0fw : spamassassin.lck
| spamassassin
And procmail is called via my .forward (I'm running postfix)
"|/usr/local/bin/procmail -t || exit 75"
I'm almost certain that at one point I had this setup so that if
there was a failure, procmail would stop what it was doing and return
a non-zero exit code, which would then result in postfix seeing a
return code of 75, so it would keep the message in it's queue.
