Help w/ procmail & SpamAssassing recipe

[Dan S]

Nancy, can't seem to get anyone to comment on the SA or Procmail
newsgroups
on this. Hope you can help...

------
I'm running spamassassin under procmail. Please review my assumptions.

I call spamassassin as follows from my procmailrc
:0 fw
| /usr/bin/spamc

If spamc fails for some reason, (TIMEOUT, too many instances, etc?)
then
procmail continues with the rest of the recipe, delivering mail without
filtering...

What risk do I incur if I add the following?

:0 fw
| /usr/bin/spamc
:0 e ## If previous errors, run this
{
EXITCODE = $EX_TEMPFAIL
HOST = "_spamc_failed_"
}
