Your comments and further investigation gives me an idea of the
problem.  Based on the docs from spamd it appears that spamd spawns a
child for each message passed to it.  The size of this attachment is
causing a delay of in one child while other messages are being
processed.  Also in the docs is the tidbit that unless -P (pipe to
STDOUT) is used with spamd, the output is written back to the mail
spool.  So Craig, I think you're dead on.  I've got a couple of these
child processes writing to the mailbox at one time.

Now the big question -- how to fix this?  Is spamd not locking mbox
properly when it's writing out the cleansed message?

Thanks very much for you help.

Barry
