Hey All,


I put up a new 4.8 box about a week ago. Mail was working fine for days and 
now all of a sudden it just keeps crashing or at least part of it is I 
think.  I've been doing the same sendmail setup on all my boxes for ages 
and I've double-checked it all.

I have even reinstalled sendmail and still no success.  If I send mail from 
another box the mail does not arrive AND it's getting black-holed (no 
bounce).

If I do a sh /etc/rc.sendmail restart mail comes in (after a few minutes) 
and everything is working, but only for a few minutes.  Then the errors 
(below) appear in the log again.


Sendmail Version: 8.12.9

Note: that is only a partial list of the errors from the maillog.  It just 
keeps replicating the same errors.
