CentOS 4.1 final w/posix lock still having issues

[Richard D Alloway]

Hi.

I have 6 SMTP gateway servers, each running either RH9, FC1, FC2 or (as of a 
few days ago) CentOS4.1final.

They all use the same MailScanner.conf file which explicitly states:

Lock Type = posix

This appears to be honored correctly:

Oct  5 04:05:55 smtp-gateway-5 MailScanner[23752]: Using locktype = posix
Oct  5 04:05:55 smtp-gateway-5 MailScanner[23752]: Creating hardcoded 
struct_flock subroutine for linux (Linux-type)

But, I still get deliveries with the dreaded "Message body disappears" errors.

Here are the logs showing this:

Oct  5 04:05:53 smtp-gateway-5 sendmail[23744]: j957uWFm017187: SYSERR(root): 
readqf: cannot open ./dfj957uWFm017187: No such file or directory

stat=Sent (OK)

I'm using:

CentOS release 4.1 (Final) - Kernel 2.6.9
MailScanner-4.42.9-1
spamassassin-3.0.4-1.i386.rpm
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.4-1.i386.rpm
spamassassin-tools-3.0.4-1.i386.rpm
sendmail 8.13.2
 	Compiled with: DNSMAP LOG MATCHGECOS MILTER MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7
 		NAMED_BIND NETINET NETUNIX NEWDB PIPELINING SCANF USERDB XDEBUG


What should I look for at this point?

Thanks!
