Is this the correct command sequence for starting and stopping filters? I have one filter, a perlfilter.

# filterctl start perlfilter # courierfilter start # filterctl stop perlfilter # courierfilter stop

On a couple occations, I have ended up with processes that I could not get rid of by using filterctl stop or courierfilter stop.

root@spaminator# courierfilter stop root@spaminator# ps ax | grep filter 24039 p2 IJ 0:00.00 /usr/local/sbin/courierfilter start 24041 p2 IJ 0:00.00 /usr/local/sbin/courierlogger courierfilter 29166 p2 S+J 0:00.00 grep filter root@spaminator# kill 24039

I assume I am just running commands in the wrong order.

"courierfilter stop" should stop everything. If it doesn't, something went wrong.
