Hi, I have developed a email distribution system based around sending email using the Javamail API on a SuSE linux box using Sendmail as the MTA.
Up to now the system has been running with no problems but recently I have been experiencing some major performance problems. My Java app has remained untouched but the watching the system run it is sending approx. 100 an hour (when it should be doing thousands). I have been watching the /var/log/mail file and I can't see any problems - sendmail seems to be connecting and sending the mail correctly - just really slowly. I am not really sure even where to start to try and find out what the problem is. Some thoughts I have are maybe Sendmail is having trouble resolving the "To:" email address....I changed how Sendmail is initiated from Inetd to a manual start so could this be the problem? Not sure if I have included enough information on what is going on but would anyone have any idea how I could try and work out what is going on? Any idea?
