+# Note: if you plan on using the -u flag to spamd you will need to
+# make sure the location of the PID file is writable by that user.
+# This can be done by making the directory /var/run/spamd and
+# changing the owner to the UID that runs spamd.  You will then
+# need to edit $pidfile in /etc/init.d/spamd. This should fix the
+# problem with stop/restart in the init scripts.
