connect(AF_INET) to spamd failed
Last night, I had to do a minor hardware upgrade on my server. Later
that night when I checked my mail, I had about 20 spams, when I'd
normally get one or two during that time. Overnight, I got about
another 30. From the headers, I can see that spamd *is* running and
generating scores, but LOTS of spam is slipping through. I tried
re-booting this morning, and looking at my syslog, I see this soon
after bootup:

Greetings Pat:
Check the following:
1. /tmp is not full.
2. The directory where the spamd socket is created has the correct
ownership (uid, guid) and permissions; if it is not in the /tmp area, then
also make sure the area the socket is created is not full.
Thank you.
