[Mimedefang] Slaves died prematurely

I have the problem every once in a while.  Usually when my system gets
bogged down.  Of course it also happened when one of the perl modules I
installed didn't play nice with MIME-tools.    

What are your system stats and are you running Spamassassin?

Anyone know a command to output the versions of perl modules installed?

ok, just for test reasons I put a default mimedefang-filter file into my
/etc/mail dir. its supposed that the default file has no errors, isn't
it?
Well i got the same error.

:(

what wrong with my mimedefang?....

besides, i did a new installation again with new mimedefang config files
and got the same errors again
