    Hi,

    some time ago I installed a little server at home to use it as firewall and
    mailserver. I got the mail using fetchmail, scanned with spamassassin and the
    delivered and filter with exim. Something that a lot of pages have explained.
    I'm using sarge in a P100 with 64Mb of ram. Little server!!!.

    In general, allworks quiet well, and also I can have mail directly. But
    sometimes (and now, every day) I have frozen messages, and I don't know why,
    because this frozen messages exim cannot delivered it to a local account!!.

    One typical log is:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1DwOmC-0003G3-4H-D
    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
    recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

        local delivery failed

    The following text was generated during the delivery attempt:

    I have found this error in one spamassassin bug report, but in teory is was
    solved by upstream one year ago. I don't understand what happens and I don't
    know if it's a bug in exim or spamassassin, so I don't know where to report
    it.

    Someone have some idea about what could I do?

    thank's in advance,

    Leo
