i left out some details, dumb.
hardware: sun e4500. software: solaris 7, 64bit kernel. compiler: sun
workshop 5.0. qmail 1.03, built 32bit (builds fine 64bit, but won't run).
qmail invoked as:
qmail-pw2u < /etc/passwd > /var/qmail/users/assign ; qmail-newu
(/bin/env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
supervise $DIR qmail-start ./Maildir/ splogger $PROG & ) \
&& echo "$PROG \c" && status
Maildir's are on Netapps, i.e. NFS. qmail queue is on two dedicated
mirrored disks.
the system(s) are under very light load currently - they're only serving
staff email until we roll out service with customers. so to the best of my
knowledge, this isn't a resource issue.
