Manually run /usr/sbin/sendmail -q once a day. Folks seem to be too
trigger happy and turn off sendmail_enable entirely (instead of setting
sendmail_flags to -q30m instead). I have seen boxes with things like daily
run reports that have sat in mailq for 5 months. Since /usr/sbin/sendmail
is actually mailwrapper, this should be safe for the other plugins that
provide the sendmail calling interface.
