no, nothing.

Yes, I change the $max_loadavg value to release this a little bit, but
the load isn't to much anyway.

Sorry, I mean sending a mail to a local user from a local account or a
remote one. The message is received with no delay at all.

I was happening that the message was getting in after four to six hours
later, but now is getting even worst, I haven't get a single message
trough majordomo since yesterday

I have tons of similar problems reports over the list and other mailing
lists, but no one haves give me a clue of where the problem maybe.
I configured sendmail to run without smrsh and the error was the same
but instead smrsh was /bin/sh.

Thank you,
Matias.
