Random messages stuck in mqueue

[Corey McFadden]

Guys,

Thanks for the replies.

I'm running Sendmail (sendmail-8.13.1-3.2.el4).

I thought about file locking and DNS as contributing factors but neither
seems to be the case.  I'm using "posix" now but did run with "flock" for a
while to see if it made a difference.

Julian: I've tried both "queue" and "batch" as Delivery Method.  (It had
been batch since the installation and I've had it as queue for about
24-hours without any detectable effect.)

For whatever it's worth, not every message seems to get hung.  Most seem to
be processed expeditiously but the ones that are hung stay that way for a
while.

Thanks,
-Corey
