[BlueOnyx:16932] SpamAssassin excessive inode consumption

[Chris Gebhardt - VIRTBIZ Internet]

We've encountered issues periodically with Spamassassin filling up 
inodes in /var.

Of course, when that happens, /var is unable to be written to and all 
sorts of ugly things start to happen.   The culprit always seems to be 
in /var/lib/sendmailanalyzer/HOSTNAME/ (where hostname is the hostname 
of the impacted server.)

Performing a quick rm -rf /var/lib/sendmailanalyzer/HOSTNAME/* seems to 
fix the issue.

Short of setting up a cron to clear out that directory on a weekly (or 
more frequent) basis, are there any tips or suggestions for this?
