Hi Antoine

Any solution to this yet?

Asking as I have had the same thing for a while now. And as you say, a
queue run from sendmail and the mail is delivered... And it also happens
randomly as you say.

The problem came with the OpenBSD 37-3.8 upgrade (the OS or a newer
sendmail). If it's not the OS or the newer sendmail it must be a change i
the cyrus 2.2.12 port that I now use from 3.8 stable tree instead of the
earlier inofficial 2.2.12 port. The cyrus and sendmail conf is exactly the
same.
