Summary: spamd doesn't start when network is down
Product: Fedora Core
Version: fc5
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: normal
Component: spamassassin
AssignedTo: wtogami at redhat.com
ReportedBy: dbaron at dbaron.org
CC: fedora-perl-devel-

Description of problem: spamd doesn't start up if the network is down.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spamassassin-3.1.0-5.fc5.2
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. /sbin/service NetworkManager stop, /sbin/ifdown eth0, or whatever turns off
your network connectivity
2. /sbin/service spamassasin start (or restart, if it's already running)
Actual results:
Starting spamd: [FAILED]
Expected results:
Starting spamd: [ OK ]
Additional info:
This worked fine in Fedora Core 4.
This makes it very painful to use spamd on a laptop that uses NetworkManager and
fetchmail. After a reboot, all the spam gets through, so I had to switch back
to spamassassin, which is much slower and uses tons of CPU.
I imagine it could also be a problem on servers that reboot if the network is
down transiently (e.g., coming back after a power outage, network equipment not
fully back yet).
