One thing you might try is deleting the compiled spamassassin rules, as that has caused seg faults on some servers I've looked at. It's in /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled/[version]. Just remove the compiled directory and restart mailscanner.

I did exactly this, but the problem continues.

Hello Sarah,
I am having the same error in the new server that you did for me. May I can send you the same info as well?

Try setting "Maximum Archive Depth" to 0 in the MailScanner configuration. If that does not stop the errors, please log a ticket.
