Due to policy issues we are required to turn sendmail off on most of our Redhat boxes. As a result cron and other scripts generate output which can not be emailed and are sent to /var/spool/clientmqueue/ were they just sit there deferred and continue to pile up. You used to be able to run sendmail in non daemon mode and still send e-mail. In Redhat 3 and 4 this is not the case, sendmail needs to be able to listen on localhost to send e-mail (from what I'm told). Starting sendmail in non daemon mode (/etc/sysconfig/sendmail) does not seem to do much. Until our policy is changed, is there a way to deal with the messages that are piling up in the clientmqueue? Short of telling cron and other scripts not to generate e-mail and/or manually going in to the clientmqueue and deleting the messages are there any other options?
