Folks,

I, too, have been having somewhat similar issues with 3.1.7.  On a RH ES
3.0u7  box, kernel 2.4.21-40.ELsmp, I see these symptoms in syslog
(spamd running with "-s local2"):

spamd's 2 kids are both marked defunct in a 'ps', and spamd processing

spamd restart is necessary to get things running again.

What do I start to look at?

This looks like bug 4476.
