Set-up Help needed

I have a mail server running qmail 1.03. I also use qmail-scanner and SA
with clamav. I noticed that I have not seen any copies of warnings of
virus packed e-mails. So a quick check od syslog has :

Aug 4 09:25:34 webmail spamc[1810]: connection attempt to spamd aborted
after 3 retries
Aug 4 09:25:46 webmail spamc[1828]: connect() to spamd at 127.0.0.1
failed, retrying (1/3): Connection refused
Aug 4 09:25:47 webmail spamc[1828]: connect() to spamd at 127.0.0.1
failed, retrying (2/3): Connection refused
Aug 4 09:25:48 webmail spamc[1828]: connect() to spamd at 127.0.0.1
failed, retrying (3/3): Connection refused
Aug 4 09:25:49 webmail spamc[1828]: connection attempt to spamd aborted
after 3 retries

(Sorry about word wrapping :-(

webmail is the host name and this was a working setup that stopped for
some reason, and 1 cup of java doesn't make the elevator hit the top
floor.

Any thoughts.

obviously, for some reason your spamd is not running, try to start it
up in the foreground, and see if it gives you any error messages.
