sounds like the "killer message syndrome". >Does anyone have any thoughts about this? Need help desperately. move, don't copy, all files from spool/ to spool/save (no msg lost) reboot the box (fastest way to kill the zombies) new mail will flow ok Then copy back the saved message files from spool/save to spool/, in groups, until the box starts screwing up again, and then you know the kille msg was in the preceding group.
