Hey All,
I put up a new 4.8 box about a week ago. Mail was working fine for days and
now all of a sudden it just keeps crashing or at least part of it is I
think. I've been doing the same sendmail setup on all my boxes for ages
and I've double-checked it all.
I have even reinstalled sendmail and still no success. If I send mail from
another box the mail does not arrive AND it's getting black-holed (no
bounce).
If I do a sh /etc/rc.sendmail restart mail comes in (after a few minutes)
and everything is working, but only for a few minutes. Then the errors
(below) appear in the log again.
Sendmail Version: 8.12.9

Note: that is only a partial list of the errors from the maillog. It just
keeps replicating the same errors.
