I don't know if redhat documents its init scripts, but the files stored in /etc/sysconfig are sourced by the various redhat init scripts (/etc/init.d/*). With regards to your post, the queue=1h would be expanded to "sendmail -q1h" within the init script on sendmail startup. As to why your queue is not being processed per the specified interval is confusing. I have been using sendmail for years and have never had this type of problem. I guess you could always increase the debug level of sendmail to see if you can spot what is happening. Steve Cowles
