Am seeing this also with MS 4.48.x under a 2.4 kernel with RH9. What I
have noticed also is that it appears to be happening only for messages
that have the recipient address set to NOT receive scanning (neither
virus or spam). The messages seem to be processed and sent along ok, but
some files linger in mqueue.in as you are seeing. Have not messed with
changing flock, so don't know if that'd help or not here at all.
