I am getting e-mails like the one below all the time, now. I had this
problem once before and I think that all I had to do was clear the
paniclog with '> paniclog', but that does not seem to be working,
now. I cleared it this morning, and when I just checked it was
filling up again. It looks like I get three lines every half hour.
This is preventing me from receiving e-mails sent by a cron job that
runs a backup script. Any ideas on how to get rid of this and not
have it come back would be greatly appreciated.

You probably used a UID/GID to clear paniclog which exim cannot write to
because different group or no group or other rights.
