Hello,

spamassassin and clamav are parts of scanning, eg should be:
qmail-smtpd->qmail-scanner|qmail-queue(for some hosts)->deliver

But there is no message from kernel not enough memory. But i'm
checking each 10 minutes system resource (free) 9:10 is before 9:20 is
after (proble was about 9:14 - 9:18)

05.10.07 09:10:
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2061020    1943956     117064          0     111824     544656
Swap:      3951968     102616    3849352
05.10.07 09:20:
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2061020    1172144     888876          0      69752     175092
Swap:      3951968     745208    3206760

Looks that was missing memory perhaps (starts using swap from 100M -> 740M)
