Hey Mark, thanks for the reply. Yeah I figured that the missing qrunners were the problem but there was no log entry that was revealing. Then I read in the mailmanctl script that restart doesn't kill the parent ps, just the qrunners. So I manually stopped and started and that did it. We'll see what happens on the next boot (last one before yesterday was 72 days ago so I'll have to write a note to myself).
