You may want to check with lsof which process is feeding STDIN of this sendmail process. lsof -p 28406 You'll see something like this: sendmail 27413 lupe 0r FIFO 0,5 2637562 pipe There is probably a better way, but I do this then: lsof | grep 2637562 And I find I started a sleep command that (never) feeds the sendmail process: sleep 27412 lupe 1w FIFO 0,5 2637562 pipe HTH, Lupe Christoph -- | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.lupe-christoph.de/ | | "Violence is the resort of the violent" Lu Tze | | "Thief of Time", Terry Pratchett | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
