hmm.. looks like this may be the problem.  netstat reports 16 tcp sessions
established to 783/tcp, which would indicate all the children are busy right?  
however, there is no load, and nothing in the log ever showed max children reached.

[root@spamd1 log]# netstat -na | grep :783 | grep ESTABLISHED | wc -l
     16
[root@spamd1 log]# netstat -na | grep :783 | grep CLOSE_WAIT | wc -l
    123

so the parent wont accept any new connection because it thinks all the children
are busy, when they really arent?  ps shows they are all sleeping...

strace shows they are in a read().

[root@spamd1 log]# strace -p 21294
read(6,

is something just not cleaning up properly?  here again is where a timeout on
spamd children would be a good thing.  the parent could sigterm the child if it
hasnt finished in x seconds.
