Hmm, no one had anything to say abou this?!?! :( I haven't seen any zombies developing since I wrote this original message but I expect that they'll creep up again if I just leave things this way. Could it be a load issue? Right now my box is pretty slammed. All inbound (via mx) mail is hitting this ONE Ultra1 and being scanned so it's working pretty hard. When I load balance to the two other ultra1's load should drop quite a bit and maybe this problem will go away on it's own.
