After a ballistic incident with SENDMAIL the other night, I'm keeping my eyes on things with a paranoid attitude. I've noticed that when I do a 'ps -ax|grep sendmail' I can always count on about 6 or seven processes running at many of the processes seem to stick around for well over 10 minutes at the 'client DATA 250' stage. With a T1link to the net, I would think an average mail run would take a tad less time than that... Ideas ? On a side note, my mqueue directory has grown about 2.5megs in 5 hours, but one of the msgs is 2megs in size. In sendmail I have the sendmail flag set to the default (FreeBSD 2.1.5) of 30mins to flush queue yet I wait 30mins and never see any noticeable drop in the size of the queue directory. I'm really starting to get bummed out about 2.1.5-RELEASE -Kurt
