Milter-Greylist died in action

2004-08-24 by Jack L. Stone

Good morning list:

I was surprised this morning to see that milter-greylist had died earlier.
Spamassassin had also died (which has ocurred before) so I don't know if
one caused the other. It shouldn't since I have GL called first -- or am I
wrong?

SA has been chronic about dying (about once/week), but the log below shows
that GL died first & probably shocked SA.... SA was restarted within 5 secs
because I use daemontools. Perhaps I need to use daemontools for GL too.

I've noticed an increase in spam lately, but my load is not all that heavy.

Anyone else seen this problem?

Here's the early log when GL died (pardon the wraps):
