mails stuck in /var/spool/mqueue.in

[Keith Fernandez]

Hi,

I have MailScanner installed with SpamAssassin on a Cobalt RaQ 550.
MailScanner works great, except that I see mail in /var/spool/mqueue.in stuck
there from time to time.
Any idea what these mails are, I sometimes do a restart of MailScanner if I
make changes to the conf file.

The version of MailScanner I am running is 4.14 Release 9
The version of sendmail is 8.11.6

Here is what my logs show.
I really dont know why these mails are stuck here.

Here is my mqueue.in dated May 23
