Spam emails have been increasing and I thought if I did "yum update" it may help.  Unfortunately, now when I try to start amavisd, I get the following:

[root@webmail postfix]# service amavisd start
Starting amavisd: fetch_modules: error loading required module Compress/Zlib.pm:

Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: [SOLVED] Amavisd won't start after "yum update"

Fixed.  All my perl modules needed reinstalled.  Somehow I had rpmforge in the repository.  Took that out, uninstall the affected modules, reinstalled and all is good.  Thanks.  /lv
