You might want to fire up CPAN and upgrade Net::DNS.

[choke]. The last time I used CPAN for upgrading anything on this box, it broke Spamassassin rather badly and I had to spend several hours restoring it to it's former glory from backups (and removing additional Perl modules that got installed on my system, but aren't compatible with SA 3.1.7).

Upgrading one package from CPAN _shouldn't_ be _that_ intrusive. Telling it to upgrade everthing is probably a bad idea, though.

I don't see where Net::DNS is causing an issue, however..

It probably is not, but I don't pay a great deal of attention discussion of problems in it, so I'm not sure. Upgrading it shouldn't hurt and may help.

Is there some debug routine I can throw in to get a general idea of how it is performing for all E-Mail?

"it" being DNS? Yes, "-D dns" as you've done, or the more verbose "--debug area=dns". You can also run "--debug area=dns,all" to see everything else too.

...how are you for memory? Those three were all close together in time, maybe (WAG) you're hitting swap?

#free -m -t
            total       used       free     shared    buffers
cached

If I am correct, this server hasn't used any swap for quite some time,
but does keep the physical memory well consumed for performance reasons.
(Debian 3.1 Sarge).

That looks good.

These are superficial suggestions, of course.
