Ok. Memory is fading if there were any particular problems with that version.

Spawned external programs like gocr and netpbm can not bring down a
perl process, but perl modules like Image::ExifTool and Perl-Imager might.

A useful feature for testing on a live server is to enable level-5 logging
only for a specific test sending address, e.g.:

@debug_sender_maps = ( ['secret.test.user@example.net'] );


Another useful trick is the -i command line option (introduced
with amavisd-new-2.5.0), providing an instance name (e.g. "test")
and allowing conditional assigning (overriding) some settings
by the end of file amavisd.conf.

For such a test instance to coexist with a running production
amavisd, it needs a dedicated pid and lock file, a dedicated
bdb directory (or disabled its use by $enable_db=0), and a
dedicated TCP port. A working directory may be shared, or
kept separate. Change the rest as needed, e.g. the following
can go by the end of file amavisd.conf:

if ($instance_name eq 'test') {
$log_level = 5;
$sa_debug = 1;
$max_servers = 1;
$TEMPBASE = "$MYHOME/tmp-am2";
$ENV{TMPDIR} = $TEMPBASE;
$pid_file = "$MYHOME/home/amavisd2.pid";
$lock_file = "$MYHOME/home/amavisd2.lock";
$enable_db = 0;
$inet_socket_port = [8888]; # listen on port 8888
}

Then one can run such extra instance of amavisd, letting it
stay connected to the terminal:

# amavisd -i test debug

Now one can submit a test message to it, e.g.:

$ mini_sendmail -fpostmaster@example.net \
-s127.0.0.1 -p8888 test@example.net <0.msg
