    Greetings list. Long time viewer, first time poster. I recently setup a 10.3 server with amavisd/clamav/spamassassin with the help of the article on this site. Thanks Joel! We’re using IMAP-only mail clients. Things have been going relatively well so far (aside from that whole corrupt database issue we ran into yesterday). Anyway, this afternoon, mail stopped. Turns out that amavisd isn’t starting up. We get this error:

    Can’t connect to TCP port 10024 on 127.0.0.1 [Address already in use]\n at line 86 in file /Library/Perl/5.8.1/Net/Server/Proto/TCP.pm

    We have restarted the server, reloaded postfix, and so on…

    Help!

    This is the line you’re probably referring to in the netstat result:
    tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.10024 *.* LISTEN

    The thing is, we’re getting the error when we try to start amavisd in debug mode…

    Should I see amavis listed in top?

    What would have caused this problem, and what do you recommend as a place to look for the solution?

    I’m assuming a short-term fix would be to comment out the added lines in the postfix conf file…
