Search the /etc/init.d directory for a start/kill script related to spamassasin or spamd. Just a guess, but you might be able to use something like sudo /etc/init.d/spamd stop This would utilize the same procedure that an ordinary system shutdown would perform. – sawdust Aug 4 '12 at 20:22
Thx dude, just i forgot to mention that spamd was installed from source and /etc/init.d/spamd dosen't exists . – debianita Aug 6 '12 at 13:52
