Provide more context by answering these questions:
-* **Did the problem start happening recently** (e.g. after updating to a new version of Rspamd) or was this always a problem?
-* If the problem started happening recently, **can you reproduce the problem in an older version of Rspamd?** What's the most recent version in which the problem doesn't happen? You can download older versions of Rspamd from [the releases page](https://github.com/rspamd/rspamd/releases).
-* **Can you reliably reproduce the issue?** If not, provide details about how often the problem happens and under which conditions it normally happens.
-* If the problem is related to scanning messages, **does the problem happen for all messages or only some?**
