But that seems to be wrong.
When setting confQUEUE_LA to 0, 
sendmail never sends mails from its outgoing queue.

After changing the value back to 8, my problem disappeared.

Background:
We are scanning incoming and outgoing mails.
Customers who are using some scripts to send mail
complained, when our MailScanner machine refused to accept mail
when it was under high load.

Viele Grüße
