Hi!
On my (home) box, I seem to to have a problem with sendmail: it just
queues everything until I start a queue-run manually, then everything
goes out as expected.
Eg I send a mail at 01:18, and at 01:52 it's still in the queue, no
problems mentioned. Connectivity was there all the time (I know, since
I was ssh'ed into smart.host all the time and did stuff there).

[i.p.a.d], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (gBO0skBh032423 Message accepted for delivery)
And yes, smart.host was responsive and accepting mail all the time
(lots of mail initiated from other hosts in that timeframe).
sendmail at both home and smart.host is 8.12.3-4.
Any ideas/hints/flames?
cheers+TIA,
