Hi,
	I was writing in regards to sendmail hanging on machines with 
high network traffic for web access. We have a p133 running bsdi 2.0.1 
with sendmail 8.7.1 and apache 1.0 that seems to run fine when there 
aren't too many web connections but when lots of connections start 
happening sendmail will accept connections but it won't send mail out. 
Specifically our eudora users can't seem to send mail out, sendmail times 
out, but sendmail accepts the connection. If you have any ideas or 
thought on wht may be causing this please e-mail me directly at 
davidp@cyber-hawaii.com, TIA. David. 

Btw,
	Has anyone run into a problem with the web server and netscape 
clients which hang when someone accesses certain web pages? TIA.
