 ### Fixed
 
+- **Rspamd:**
+  - Configuration changes now trigger a service reload instead of a restart ([#4632](https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver/pull/4632))
 - **Internal:**
   - `ENABLE_QUOTAS=1` - When an alias has multiple addresses, the first local mailbox address found will be used for the Dovecot dummy account workaround ([#4581](https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver/pull/4581))
   - Change Detection service - Added support for responding to updated DMS config (_Rspamd and TLS certificates_) to `ACCOUNT_PROVISIONER=LDAP` ([#4627](https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver/pull/4627))
