MAX_RESTARTS = 10 is set locally in mailmanctl AFTER it imports mm_cfg (and it doesn't reference mm_cfg.MAX_RESTARTS), so setting it in mm_cfg.py won't do anything. You have to change it in mailmanctl. Your log entries (e.g.) >Mar 13 14:25:28 2006 (5122) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit >(pid: 5132, sig: None, sts: 1, class: OutgoingRunner, slice: 2/2) >[restarting] say the runner exited with exit status 1 and no signal caught. They don't do this on their own without writing an 'error' log entry. In this case, there "should be" something like child process leaked thru: OutgoingRunner in the error log if OutgoingRunner called exit(1), but some runners never call exit. >Can anybody offer any help on why this may be happening or any debugs I >can enable? There are no debugs you can turn on or off. You have to add your own. I don't know what's happening here if there aren't any messages in the 'error' log. Just a guess, but possibly you are hitting some OS limit on process memory or something like that. Have you checked your OS logs? -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
