Hello,

Does this mean I am alone?  I have 3 servers that do this, however they
are in essense clones of each other (they were 12 months ago when they
were set up, they have been upgraded MailScanner versions independantly
since then).  I am not running spamd and  only MailScanner can reference
SpamAssassin on these boxes.

More logs I found:

Each file was created after these events.  Is it possible that
MailScanner is not pausing while it is doing the expiry?  I ask this
because:

Another MailScanner child was scanning while the first one was rebuilding?
