sendmail panic

[augusto cossa]

Hi,

Help on:

I'm receiving on my terminal the following message:

11:47:09 mtm01 sendmail [22099]: LAA22099: losing gfLAA22099: sendmail panic

11:47:09 mtm01 sendmail [22099]: LAA22099: losing gfLAA22099: sendmail: cannot save rejected email anywhere.

What does meaning? Why this?

Thanks

Augusto

Use newaliases or sendmail -bi to rebuild the database. Check the /etc/mail/aliases file for any inclusion of you name or ip address. You can also print the status of the mail queue with sendmail -bp.

sendmail has mail that has been rejected but has nowhere to save it. Normally it goesinto a file called 'dead.letter'.

Is there space available in /var?

And again I agree with John, looking at your other message Id say /var is full

[Victor BERRIDGE]

Have you looked at /var/spool/mqueue?
