Are there any stale locks in the locks directory?  Are there any
errors in the log files?  I'msure you tried restarting the qrunner
daemon, right?  Try "mailmanctl stop" followed by "mailmanctl start"
(this isn't exactly the same as "mailmanctl restart".

So it's getting to the list, and it has to be being processed in the
incoming queue pipeline at least through to ToDigest.py.  That's a
good clue.  I'm betting messages are piling up in qfiles right?
