This reminds me of one machine I inherited where an hourly status report
always came in 15 minutes late. Checking, I found that the status
report was run at the top of the hour, and a /usr/lib/sendmail -qf cron
job was run at 0,15,30,45 past the hour. Changing the queue flush cron
to 1,16,31,46 fixed that problem. :-)
