Hello,

I hope you can help us with this problem:

Sendmail is leaving processes such as the ones below after sending mail.
The syslog file says that the status of the mail is sent and we can confirm
that the mail has arrived. These processes stay indefinitely chewing up
CPU time like crazy. We'd like to get rid of this problem! Any suggestions
or hints where to look would be more than welcome.

We are using v5.65 of sendmail on a Sun 3/60.

Thanks in anticipation,
