Hi,
The machine has been running fine since past few months, Yesterday
suddenly it stopped sending and receiving mails. Checking the log
shows that the time changes by +5.5 hours when sendmail is
(re)started. +5.5 is the difference between GMT and the timezone for
the server which is set to IST.
One of the suggestions was that this could be caused by chroot but I
checked /etc/postfix/master.cf but I see 'n' for chroot for all the
lines.
Where can I check/correct the time offset with sendmail.
Also, 'ps aux' does not show any sendmail processes running most of
the time and qshape shows a growing mail in the active queue.
pflogsumm shows that only a few emails from the queue are sent
sporadically during the day.
