queue_run_max option
Option: queue_run_max
Type: integer
Default: 5
This controls the maximum number of queue-running processes that the
Exim daemon will run simultaneously. It does not, however, interlock
with other processes, so additional queue-runners can be started by
other means, or by killing and restarting the daemon.
maybe this *might* help... otherwise change log_level and see. and then perhaps
also try Philip's suggestion of using the delivery test mode..
