A lot of these going around

May 18 11:50:22 d_baron spamc[5797]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 
failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Connection refused

Seems harmless though annoying.
Fix?

There is no -A parameter used. 127.0.0.1 is "loopback". Do I need it (and why 
was it not placed on installation)?

Or maybe some "rejecting connection due to high load" messages in je system logs?

Is spamd configured to allow connections from 127.0.0.1?

(ie: what are you passing after the -A parameter to spamd?)
