Could you check that its happy if there are overlapping queue runner 
jobs.

Also what happens if the MTA has been shut down?  Things like this can 
be a real pain to deal with if you have to reboot a server and a last 
gasp cron job throws away mail because it fired up after the mta had 
stopped but before cron has been shut down... or various other 
scenarios.
