I would certainly like to browse that documentation.

However, it's not an overall server resource issue, the server isn't using
even 25% of the physical memory available.  Also, as I mentioned, it was
working great, then it stopped working.  That's what through me off.  I
tried tweaking the memory settings in the qmail-smtpd run file, but that
didn't help the issue.  Even allowing up to 10MB didn't remove the error.

That's why I was wondering if anyone else had any issues with F-Prot in
the last day or so.  I'm considering reinstalling F-Prot fresh and trying
again, although any other suggestions are certainly welcome.
