Hi! After I reported this, I stopped pyzor+spamassassin+spamass-milt, killed the pyzor processes, and restarted p+s+sm. I haven't seen stuck processes since. However, if this indeed cure the problem, I would have expected the pyzor scripts to have done this for me?
I'll report back after the weekend. Perhaps a restart was all that was required.
