That sounds like sendmail, nvserverd is only going to process new

information is old, the mail is old. I would check for a hung queue or

Netview 7.1.4 on Solarix 8
After I reset the host that NETVIEW runs on, Netview for some reason
is sending (via email ) old trap information from 3 months ago, that
was generated by a script run from an "ESE.automation" file. The
script does have an "mail" command in it. It would not be too bad
if it were only one EMAIL but it is about 100. I have no clue where
this old data may be stored. This is the second time, so the data
must be sitting in some file somewhere and gets read by some process
after every HOST RESET. (NOT A RESET OF NETVIEW) not sure if that
does it too.
No sure if its related to ovactiond or unix sendmail.
Any ideas would help.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Paul for the info. It looks like sendmail had a problem and
never purged the old mail. The mail was from a previous time when the
mail-server was down and netview executed the script.
