Hey,

In case you folks haven't figured this one out yet, I saw someone solve 
this a day or two ago. It has to do with sendmail and MailScanner 
interacting. Look carefully in the archives over Monday and Tuesday's posts 
on the sendmail patches.

In a nutshell, the person who solved this stopped the mailscanner (which 
also stops sendmail) and deleted the directories q* in mqueue. Be sure to 
follow full directions from the original poster!

Cheers,
Glenn
