My mail server (sendmail) stops responding couple times during a day. Rebooting
the machine usually fixes the problem temporarily. When i checked maillog here
is what it i see:
sendmail[31759]: rejecting connections on daemon MTA: load average: 12
I also noticed other errors in the maillog which are:
spamd[31667]: mkdir /root/.spamassassin: Permission denied at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 1530
spamd[31667]: locker: safe_lock: cannot create tmp lockfile
/root/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock.XXX.XXX.XXX.31667 for
/root/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock: Permission denied
spamd[31667]: auto-whitelist: open of auto-whitelist file failed: locker:
safe_lock: cannot create tmp lockfile
/root/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock.XXX.XXX.XXX.31667 for
/root/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock: Permission denied
When i run "ps -aux --sort 'rss'" here is what i see.
