Hi all I am replying to this as I have a similar problem that I have been trying to track for a while now. Suddenly(about 10 days ago) I start getting mail in from a couple of months ago. It is rather embarrasing as it was an invite to customers and some of them are mad because they wanted to partake in the special. I checked the headers and mailman, mailscanner server, and sendmail/procmail on the box delivered it on that day. It also happens randomly and I can not see a specifc pattern. Of the tens of thousands that I sent I recon 500 or 600 have problem. I will be interested to see the headers of the mail that you got in late. Check if sendmail delivered it correctly a year ago that way we can see where your problem is. I use redhat 7.3 sendmail 8.12.6 and qpopper version 4.0.3 (standalone) The only thing I cannot varify is qpopper.
