Single process taking over?

[David Hooton]

Hi,

I've just upgraded to 4.26.8 and have noticed that on one of our linux boxes
running Sendmail MailScanner seems to have spawned all the processes, but
one process always uses 99-100% CPU and the box is killing itself to keep up
regardless of weather mail is waiting to be processed or not.

If I kill that individual MailScanner process the box begins to run
normally.

Has anyone else seen this?  It's a pretty big issue as this box is one of
our core message routing boxes.

Regards,

David Hooton
