MailScanner stops processing

I have MailScanner and SpamAssassin running on Ubuntu Server.  About
once a day it will stop processing email and the incoming mail will
stack up in /var/spool/postfix/hold sometimes it gets up to 4 or 500
messages before it finally processes them and begins to empty.  When it
does empty it runs very fast.  I removed the RBL's thinking they could
be causing this and I also tested external DNS on some of the messages
it was getting stuck on and I am seeing no problems at all there.  I ran
a MailScaner -debug -sa-debug the first time and saw that my bayes
tables were reporting that they were damage so I repaired that.  The
next time I ran it, it completed  but it hung for a good 2 minutes on
the following line:

 

[17790] dbg: check:
subtests=__HAS_MSGID,__MISSING_REF,__MSGID_OK_DIGITS,__MSGID_OK_HOST,__M
SOE_MID_WRONG_CASE,__NONEMPTY_BODY,__SANE_MSGID,__SARE_WHITELIST_FLAG,__
TVD_BODY,__UNUSABLE_MSGID

 

Any ideas?
