I'm trying to send out mails from my server using mailx, however everytime I send one, it appears to be held in the /var/spool/mqueue for 44 mins before being sent.
I'm quite new to sendmail, so don't really know where to start with this /var/log/syslog displays the following:
Any ideas on where to start? I've tried looking at sendmail.cf for any default queue options, but it might as well be written in klingon, I can't make head nor tail of the output!

logrotate_mail_selinux
logrotate_mail_selinux(8) SELinux Policy logrotate_mail logrotate_mail_selinux(8)NAME
logrotate_mail_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the logrotate_mail processes
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the logrotate_mail processes via flexible mandatory access control.
The logrotate_mail processes execute with the logrotate_mail_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
For example:
ps -eZ | grep logrotate_mail_t
ENTRYPOINTS
The logrotate_mail_t SELinux type can be entered via the mta_exec_type, mta_exec_type, sendmail_exec_t file types.
The default entrypoint paths for the logrotate_mail_t domain are the following:
/bin/mail(x)?, /usr/bin/mail(x)?, /usr/sbin/sendmail(.sendmail)?, /usr/bin/esmtp, /usr/sbin/rmail, /usr/sbin/ssmtp, /usr/lib/sendmail,
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail, /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix, /usr/lib/courier/bin/sendmail
PROCESS TYPES
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system
You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux logrotate_mail policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
logrotate_mail processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for logrotate_mail:
logrotate_mail_t
Note: semanage permissive -a logrotate_mail_t can be used to make the process type logrotate_mail_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. logrotate_mail policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
allow you to manipulate the policy and run logrotate_mail with the tightest access possible.
If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo-
gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
default.
setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors, you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
default.
setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P fips_mode 1
If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
setsebool -P global_ssp 1
If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory, you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
NSSWITCH DOMAIN
If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server for the logrotate_mail_t, you
must turn on the authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean.
setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos for the logrotate_mail_t, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean.
setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

COMMANDS
semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.
semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.
semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.
semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
