Nice to see another gentoo user on here. FWIW, I've been updating the
ebuild locally to track Julian's additions (currently at 4.76.24.3),
with the intention of feeding it back to the community at some point. If
you want to test my ebuild, let me know.

You don't say how much mail you're putting through the system, but do
you really need 5 MailScanner child processes? I seem to remember that
that is the default value; you could try setting Max Children to a lower
value which will bring the memory usage down to a more reasonable level.
