Subject: [SA-exim] Call of spamc from local_scan
Message-ID: <20050708095922.21640.qmail@web50610.mail.yahoo.com>

Hello,

I have a question about the call of spamc from local_scan :
Why '-t' scanc option is not use on this call?
Without this option, are you sure that spamd stops working when spamc
is killed by the actual timeout procedure?

Sincerely,
Smanhes

1) There is a default -t value of 600 
2) SA-Exim also has an internal counter and alarm so that it doesn't run too long
