Curious sequence of entries for one logfile. Do you have the same file
set as application log and mailbox log or did you merge those bits
manually?
It's very strange that this happened without any manual interference
from you. The module reads the info into memory when it's loaded or
reinitialised[1] and doesn't even use its Settings file after that.

Difficult. NSQ doesn't do any logging (mainly because I didn't want to
slow it down). I could ask for the output of some of the diagnostic
commands, but I can already predict what they would show if it did
happen again. Still, maybe the result of the following sequence of
commands in a taskwindow could tell me something:
*show nsq*
*show antispam*
*nsqcache -s
*nsqcache -v
*nsqcache -a
*nsqcache -vd
If anything strange happened to NSQ's environment variables, the last
command probably wouldn't produce anything (it needs the file mentioned
in the NSQ$GTemplate variable).

[1] With the command nsqcache -c1 . Not something one would enter
inadvertently...
