This is irrelevant. SIGPIPE does not result in program abort. It happens routinely when yoiu execute "postfix reload", or when a down-stream daemon dies. > 0x00007f5729f16f90 in __write_nocancel () from /lib64/libc.so.6 > (gdb) #0 0x00007f5729f16f90 in __write_nocancel () from /lib64/libc.so.6 > #1 0x00007f572c21156c in master_notify () > from /usr/lib64/libpostfix-master.so.1 > #2 0x00007f572c20f1a9 in ??

This is not the cleanup daemon! Please can you at the very least instrument the RIGHT PROGRAM (cleanup), and please can you look for the RIGHT ERROR (signal 6). Wietse
