Not done anything to the box lately. Running exim as MTA but mail is fine. Did a ps aux and found loads of stuff relating to the periodic routines. The load average is 0 - but they seem to have hung. Got another box as well and it is fine - been getting the emails. Logged in the logs and can't find any reference to periodic in there. How can I debug this problem? Thanks in advance.
