Subject: Defunct processes
I've just started running Exim 1.58 on a Sun Ultra 1 (Solaris 2.5.1), and I
seem to have a fairly constant low level of defunct processes on the system,
all of them running as 'exim'. As time goes on some go away and others
appear, so I always seem to have 8-12 around. Is this normal, or should I be
trying to find a reason?
