Any comments on how I could have misconfigured qmail-scanner? Or, Jason, is it a bug with qmail-scanner-queue.pl and how do I tell/fix it?

Why not set up a logging subservice and let svscan take care of most of that last bit? > init(1)-+-agetty(109) [...] > |-perl5.6.1(25706) * THESE ARE THE TROUBLESOME PROCESSES > |-sh(25244)---qmail-smtpd(25250)---perl5.6.1+ Why is qmail-smtpd running a perl process? Ah, QMAILQUEUE running qmail-scanner. You would appear to have either found a bug in or misconfigured qmail-scanner.
