I've cleared some more space and limited the number and size of emails people can send through sendmail, and things are getting back on track for the FreeBSD machine (the BSDI machine has other problems). Next I'll give the kernel its full 256 maxusers. Can anyone suggest the standard procedure for clearing an overwhelmed mail queue? I've been moving files in and out of the queue directory to keep its size manaageable and that's no fun at all. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
