It isn't that straightforward. See
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.068.htp>.

In any case, I don't think that's the problem here.

Is there any more in the qrunner log than was in the original post
(e.g., messages from the qrunners indicating a received signal)? Is
there anything in Mailman's error log?

It is unlikely to be any kind of processing error as that would
normally affect at most one runner. I note that NewsRunner wasn't in
the log in the OP. Is it unaffected, or are you not running it?

It is most likely some external cron process or OS condition that is
stopping the runners, but it's difficult to say without more log info
from Mailman or the OS.
