I've noticed this happening from time to time,
both at work and at home:

May 17 10:20:51 field mimedefang-multiplexor[536]: Slave 1 stderr: Out of 
memory during request for 23160 bytes, total sbrk() is 27359232 bytes!
May 17 10:20:51 field mimedefang-multiplexor[536]: Slave 1 died prematurely -- 
check your filter rules
May 17 10:20:51 field mimedefang[552]: Error from multiplexor: ERR No response 
from slave

This particular one was an email confirming a job interview,
which I didn't receive so didn't show up - kind of focused my
attention a bit!

The machine has 1Gb of swap space and all it does now is mail
handling and a bit of DNS so I'm surprised it could have run
out of memory.
