[gentoo-server] email demons...

[Ben Munat]

Hey, has anyone ever had their mail server get stuck sending the same message over and 
over? I just had that problem... I think I stopped it but I'd like to know the cause.

I have qmail, courier, and vpopmail and one of the virtual domain users kept getting the 
same message over and over. I bounced qmail and thought all was good, but then the torrent 
started again.

After a while, it stopped being the original repeated message and started being just a 
blank (no headers even) message over and over. Finally, I bounced courier and qmail and 
the problem seems to have stopped.... I hope.

I've seen "stuck" emails like this at work too... Anyone know what the cause is?
