[comp.mail.sendmail] why must uucp queue be started manually?

todd@Quotron.COM (Todd_Booth) (12/07/90)

I've pointed (via an MX) janus.quotron.com email to ns.quotron.com which
allows the mail to come in fine.  However, it gets stuck in the outgoing
mail queue and I must wait about 10 minutes and then type sendmail -q  to
get it out of the queue.  Our sendmail demon is started with the -q30m which
doesn't seem to work.  We're running Sun 4.1 and when I run sendmail -bt it
states (Version 4.1).  Is that the sendmail version Sun ships?

Any ideas why I must mannually run the queue when incoming tcp mail works
fine?
