Set it to learn to the journally, and then manually process the journal
every hour.
It is trying to lock the bayes journal, and other mimedefang threads can't
read to it while it learns from the journal.
This will solve your problem.
My settings:
bayes settings:
bayes_learn_to_journal 1
bayes_journal_max_size 5120000
cronjob:
*/55 * * * * su -c 'sa-learn --rebuild' defang; echo defang >
/dev/null
