Thanks, this sounds bad. We must be marking your mail program as
non-interactive while it's starting up. What is the program? Oh, and on
a dual system? This is most suspicious. Do you have any other tasks
running at the same time? This looks more like the long term balancer has
a problem as well.
I actually just made some changes there. Can you update your sources as
well?
Thanks for the report!
