I am running qmail and vpopmail.

Hi.  My qmail server has been humming along quite nicely.
Its a small  server with a small amount of users.  I noticed logging
in via POP had become very slow so I decided to talk a closer look.
I notice that the tcprules process and the vchkpw process is sometimes
using up to 90% of CPU consitently.  I also noticed a lot of large files in
the
/etc/tcprules.d directory with the following type of names:

qmail-smtpd.tmp.24168
qmail-smtpd.tmp.24105
etc

I tried restarting the pop server and qmail but it seems to just continue
on taking up so much CPU, same with rebooting.

I only have 100 users on this server so I dont think I should have any
problems.

How do I go about debugging this ?

It has been working fine for about 5 months until this.

thanks !
Tony
