Hi

Thanks for the replies.

I ran sendmail -d0.10 and

HASFLOCK appeared in the OS Defines. Does that mean sendmail uses FLOCK
locking?

If thats the case any other ideas what might be causing this problem?

Thanks

Paul

| You do have to change it. Sendmail 8.12.11 (from 8.12.10 I think)
needs the posix locking.

Actually all redhat based versions (and that is where fedora core comes
from) use FLOCK and not posix locking. You can easiyl check wheter your
sendmail was compiled with posix though by outputting the compile flags
