Might be better to follow up with the tcl/tk people and see why
this is happening -- it's not at all normal for various versions
of exmh and should not really be happening.  I've got one exmh
that's been running since last year and only uses 4 MB and
another one that's been going a few days on FreeBSD that's only
up to 5 MB, and I'd call that normal.

This sounds like a faulty sendmail config.  I'm not going to
suggest a fix because I stopped using sendmail years ago and it
has evolved quite a bit since then.  I'm sure somebody else will
be able to help.

Setting up sendmail right would be far more likely to do that.
Standard mh-6.8.4 works just fine.
