Hi Jamie,

I don't actually use the application in question, but based on the man 
page Google gave me, the -p parameter states:
"The default port is found by looking for the named service spamd using 
getservbyname(3) 
<http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/getservbyname.3.html>", so I'd guess 
that you need a "spamd" entry in /etc/services with a port of 25; 
assuming that's where you're expecting mail to be delivered to. ;-)

HTH,

Mike.
