I've seen this a number of times, and I wonder what's going on. I have a
resend process that's been in the mailq for over an hour! ps shows the
following processes. Note the processes started at 7:50, and it is
now 9:00 and the processes are still sitting there! Also note that resend
has processed the message and passed it to sendmail, who has started a
number of defunct processes, and is currently doing nothing! Any sendmail
suggestions? There is no load on my machine at all, so it's not failing
because the system's too busy....
Thanks!
