I've had tons of problems with db_file corruption. In fact, I'm in the middle of trying to fix my own greylisting db_file corruption problem. I also have a db_file problem somewhere in graphdefang, although it's using MLDBM with db_file.

My problems arose when freebsd updated from perl 5.8.2(.3?) to 5.8.4 last month. My SA db got blown away. db_file that I had previously seems to have gotten replaced by bsdpan-DB_File, a version from cspan.

AFAICT, SA is working but I'm definately having problem with db_file in my greylisting and in graphdefang.
