Nope,  giving up on SpamAssassin for the time being (Solaris 8, MD 2.3, 
sendmail 8.11.6). Too many errors of the following type 
whenever  spam_assassin_is_spam() is called from filter_begin() in 
mimedefang-filter.

handleSlave ReceivedAnswer(1): Timeout or error: Flag = 3

Jan 10 09:19:32 PSYCH mimedefang-multiplexor: [ID 396163 mail.info] Killing

multiplexor: ERR Filter timed out

to=<list1 at psy.uq.edu.au>, delay=00:00:33, pri=6770331, stat=Please try 
again later

The errors only occur on messages with large attachments. I'm using the 
spamassassin.cf template that supposedly fixes the spamassassin 1.5 hang 
problem but it hasn't cured the timeout problems.
