Please update our kernel patch first to the latest recommended. There are too many fixes for sendmail in the past releases, not sure if this is the cause or not. Why not we isolate one issue at a time first?

erm... i think need to wait next time plant shutdown only can perform this.
is it got other way to solve it?
