I have been getting this error for the last few days on my Cyrus-IMAP
server. The details of the system are:
OS: Redhat Linux 9
cyrus-imapd: 2.1.13
cyrus-imapd-utils: 2.1.13
sendmail: 8.12.8
The symptoms are the the mail is queuing up on the mailserver once
Fetchmail recovers them from my external mail servers. The only thing
that successfully delivers the mail is a restart of both the Cyrus-IMAP
server and the Sendmail daemon. My log file is as follows:
