Hi All, I have started seeing a problem with "extra" sendmail processes since upgrading to SpamAssassin 3.0.1 from 2.63 yesterday.
I would normally have only a few sendmail processes at any one time unless I am mailing out. Now I seem to get an extra 20 or so extra after a while. They seem to be trying to deliver spam (china, korea etc) but do not complete (see a snippet of ps -aux a the end). I am loathe to kill them off as they are unable to deliver to due to a mis-config but I am not seeing any evidence of the mis configuration in the logs -- in fact I do not see the listed (ps) sendmail processes in the log at all. Has anyone seen this problem with SA? Is there a way to trace the process and see why/where is was spawned from - giving my some clue as to the cause. Suggestions? TIA Steve FreeBSD 4.7 Sendmail 8.12.6 SA 3.0.1 Ps -aux snippet: root 15439 0.0 0.7 2940 1460 ?? I 11:03PM 0:00.01 sendmail: server [219.249.65.111] cmd read (sendmail) root 15446 0.0 0.7 2940 1460 ??
