Hello,
   I am having a problem with sendmail on 3.3-Release.  After sendmail has 
run awhile (as a daemon), I find that there are many processes started by 
sendmail, roughly 150.  The processes look like this under ps ax:

51275  ??  S      0:00.42 sendmail: startup with 12.19.232.12 (sendmail)
51309  ??  S      0:00.42 sendmail: startup with 12.19.232.12 (sendmail)
53080  ??  S      0:00.33 sendmail: startup with 207.245.62.161 (sendmail)
53103  ??  S      0:00.34 sendmail: startup with 207.245.62.161 (sendmail)

After a few hours, there will be about 150 of these, to 5 or 6 different 
IP's.  Just wondering if anyone knows what could be causing this.

Thanks,
Allen Hyer
