DESCRIPTION
       The purpose of this program is to provide a tool to monitor the status
       of "spamd" server processes.  spamd is the daemonized version of the
       spamassassin executable, both provided in the SpamAssassin
       distribution.
       This program is designed for use, as a plugin, with the Nagios service
       monitoring software available from http://nagios.org.  It might be
       compatible with other service monitoring packages.  It is also useful
       as a command line utility or as a component of a custom shell script.
OPTIONS
       Options of the long form can be shortened as long as the remain
       unambiguous (i.e. --host can be used instead of --hostname).
       -c secs, --critical=secs
           Critical ping response threshold in seconds.  If a spamd ping
           response takes longer than the value specified (in seconds) the
           program will exit with a value of 2 to indicate the critical
           status.
           This value must be at least as long as the value specified for
           warning and less than the value specified for timeout.
       -h, -?, --help
           Prints this usage message and exits.
       -H hostname, --hostname=hostname
           The hostname, or IP address, of the spamd service to ping.  By
           default the hostname localhost is used.  If --socketpath is set
           this value will be ignored.
       -p port, --port=port
           The port of the spamd service to ping.  By default port 783 (the
           spamd default port number) is used.  If --socketpath is set this
           value will be ignored.
       --socketpath=path
           Connect to given UNIX domain socket.  Use instead of a hostname and
           TCP port.  When set, any hostname and TCP port specified will be
           ignored.
       -t secs, --timeout=secs
           The maximum time to wait for a ping response.  Once exceeded the
           program will exit with a value of 2 to indicate the critical
           status.  The default timeout value is 45 seconds.  The timeout must
           be no less than 1 second.
           This value must be greater than the values specified for both the
           critical and warning values.
       -v, --verbose
           Display verbose debug output on STDOUT.
       -V, --version
           Display version info on STDOUT.
       -w secs, --warning=secs
           Warning ping response threshold in seconds.  If a spamd ping
           response takes longer than the value specified (in seconds), and
           does not exceed the critical threshold value, the program will exit
           with a value of 1 to indicate the warning status.
           This value must be no longer than the value specified for critical
           and less than the value specified for timeout.
EXIT CODES
       The program will indicate the status of the spamd process being
       monitored by exiting with one of these values:
       0   OK: A spamd ping response was received within all threshold times.
       1   WARNING: A spamd ping response exceeded the warning threshold but
           not the critical threshold.
       2   CRITICAL: A spamd ping response exceeded either the critical
           threshold or the timeout value.
       3   UNKNOWN: An error, probably caused by a missing dependency or an
           invalid configuration parameter being supplied, occurred in the
           sa-check_spamd program.
