Give them a zero score in /etc/mail/spamassassin/mailscanner.conf. See /var/lib/spamassassin/<version>/updates_spamassassin_org/20_dnsbl_tests.cf for what RBL's it uses by default. I only run a couple here. Also usual advice of make sure the mailscanner host is running a local caching nameserver!

You got a bad process-id in there, manually kill the MS processes I'd suggest.

Check the setup of sendmail - two sendmails, writing pids to correct files etc
