Re: sendmail -q issue (hangs)
/var/spool/mqueue was having bulk of messages. I removed all of them and found OK.
My question - if such issue arises again, is there any fix ? or any bug fix from sendmail.org.
Pls confirm
Note: Points has been assigned to you all.
Thanks

In my case, root mail was locked so it just accumulated. Did you take a look at the mail to see if there was really anything important?
