[Mimedefang] Server crashes

[Alan Madill]

I'm having a problem with random crashes on our primary  
mailserver.

Aug 12 01:01:38 setup sendmail[31135]: grew WorkList for  
/var/spool/mqueue to 51000 

It died here.  Is that an overly large value for the worklist? 

The system is an Athlon 2500 with 1 gig of memory running  
sendmail 8.12.8, MD on Redhat 8.0.  I have it logging to another  
server but nothing suspicious shows up in the messages log.
