Do this:  Run "ulimit -c unlimited", then start spamass-milter.  When
it crashes, take the core file generated (could be called core,
core.####, spamass-milter.core, or something similar, depending on your
os), and run:

BSD/Linux (or any system with gdb):
    $ gdb /path/to/spamass-milter spamass-milter.core
    (gdb) thread apply all where
Solaris:
    $ pstack core 
Tru64:
    $ ladebug /path/to/spamass-milter core
    (ladebug) where 

If you can't find any corefiles at all, you can run the milter within
gdb:

    $ gdb /path/to/spamass-milter
    $ run <put your spamassassin comandline args here>

and when it crashes just run "thread apply all where".
