How does Imail know if Declude has run on these files?

It doesn't know. But since it doesn't keep track, it has to start Declude. Scanning an E-mail twice won't hurt (except for CPU usage), but not scanning it will hurt (it can cause Evil E-mails to come through).

The best thing to do in this case is to look at the IMail and Declude log file entries for one of these E-mails, before restarting the queue manager. The entries for the E-mail should stop somewhere, which will provide clues as to what is happening to the E-mail.

That shouldn't cause this -- Declude will timeout the external process if it takes too long.
