MailScanner occasionally not picking up from the hold queue

[Nigel Kendrick]

I have tried running debug and most of the time it runs through fine but
occasionally it grinds to a halt.

The tail end of the section where it sometimes stops is as follows:

debug: running raw-body-text per-line regexp tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: running full-text regexp tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: Running tests for priority: 1000
debug: running meta tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: running header regexp tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: running body-text per-line regexp tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: running uri tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: running raw-body-text per-line regexp tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: running full-text regexp tests; score so far=-1.053
debug: is spam? score=-1.053 required=5
debug: tests=ALL_TRUSTED,MISSING_DATE,MISSING_SUBJECT,NO_REAL_NAME
debug:
subtests=__HAS_MSGID,__MSGID_OK_DIGITS,__MSGID_OK_HOST,__SANE_MSGID,__UNUSAB
LE_MSGID

Now, when debug DOES complete, the next bits are:

debug: ---- MIME PARSER START ----
debug: main message type: text/plain
debug: parsing normal part
debug: added part, type: text/plain
debug: ---- MIME PARSER END ----
debug: bayes: 20574 tie-ing to DB file R/O
/var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin/bayes_toks
debug: bayes: 20574 tie-ing to DB file R/O
/var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin/bayes_seen
debug: bayes: found bayes db version 3
debug: bayes: Not available for scanning, only 32 spam(s) in Bayes DB < 200
debug: bayes: 20574 untie-ing
debug: bayes: 20574 untie-ing db_toks
debug: bayes: 20574 untie-ing db_seen
...etc...

This seems to imply that the MIME PARSER bit is sometimes not starting OR
that the subtests prior to this aren't finishing??

Anyone!??

Thanks
