mailscanner dies

[Craig Kelley]

I've been running Mailscanner for some weeks now, and I got a report today
that none of the email was being delivered.  I noted that the mailscanner
program wasn't running, so I started it back up.  It uses up a bit of CPU
time and spins around for a while (ending up with 200 items in the
incomming/ directory) and then dies.  If I run it in debug mode it does
this:

# ./mailscanner /var/spool/mailscanner/etc/mailscanner.conf
In Debugging mode, not forking...
#

No message, nothing.  Any ideas?
