Hi I found I had to tweak sendmail.cf a bit but I m not sure of your load
avaerages
anyway if you have a little spare
do this to sendmail.cf and restart
increase all these
# load average at which we just queue messages
O QueueLA=15
# load average at which we refuse connections
O RefuseLA=20
# maximum number of children we allow at one time
O MaxDaemonChildren=12
eg
O QueueLA=25
O RefuseLA=40
O MaxDaemonChildren=24
is what I use
