That seems strange. 'mailmanctl stop' should stop all the idle qrunners.
For the running qrunners, they won't stop until they finish processing
the one currently processing message - the one named with a .bak
extension, but they should stop after that one, even if there are others
in the queue, and if you've removed .pck files from the queue, they
should not return by themselves.
