Follow-up to SpamAssassin Hangup

[Mojahedul Hoque Abul Hasanat]

Dear List,

This is a miracle!  Once MailScanner re-executed itself after the
default 4 hours, the spamassassin hangup problem just vanished.  The log
shows gobbles of "SpamAssassin timed out..." before the first restart,
after that it's clean like a baby.

This is the second time I witnessed this miracle.  If I kill MailScanner
and start it, hangups start showing up until the first re-exec.

Any scientific explanations?
