I notice many defunctional procmail-processes after some time of running the server.

Code:

# ps -A | grep procmail

 3659 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3730 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3731 ?        00:00:00 procmail <defunct>

 3750 ?        00:00:00 procmail

32634 ?        00:00:00 procmail <defunct>

32661 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3790 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3809 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3822 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3858 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 3990 ?        00:00:00 procmail <defunct>

 3999 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 4277 ?        00:00:00 procmail <defunct>

 4286 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 4967 ?        00:00:00 procmail <defunct>

 4981 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 5746 ?        00:00:00 procmail <defunct>

 5758 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 8921 ?        00:00:00 procmail

 8930 ?        00:00:00 procmail

and this occures after nearly 2 hours of uptime:

Code:

# uptime

 10:12pm  up   1:48,  1 user,  load average: 1.51, 1.59, 1.66

ispconfig is running on suse 9.2 with procmail v3.22

does anybody know if there is a known bug with this software?
