I'm still getting question marks in spam scores.
Hi,
I updated from spamassassin 3.2.3 to 3.2.4 and I'm still getting
these question marks in score from spamassassin.
Here is a sample of the header I get with this message:

Is it because that spamassassin is taking a such a long time and
timing out so I'm getting these question mark in scores? How do I
adjust the timeout?
Thank you for any assistance,
Frank

Well, that's a qmail-scanner question really..
However a quick search on google for qmail-scanner tiemout turns up:
http://www.mail-archive.com/qmail-scanner-general@lists.sourceforge.net/msg06929.html
Apparently qmail-scanner by default calls spamc with an absurdly short
30 second timeout. Given that SA needs to do bayes database management
from time to time (once or twice a day), some messages could take
several minutes to scan, as this one probably did. (bayes expiry can be
slow if your system isn't fast and/or your database is large.)
That post is about disabling timeouts, I'd just eliminate the -t option
and let spamc manage its own timeouts at the default of 600 seconds.
