[thelist] CFmail restarting server..

[Daniel J. Cody]

CF5 pro on redhat 6.2

the cf server is restarting itself every 35 seconds(exactly).
"Information","1024","11/29/01","11:41:19",,"The ColdFusion Application 
Server started."
"Information","1024","11/29/01","11:41:55",,"The ColdFusion Application 
Server started."
"Information","1024","11/29/01","11:42:30",,"The ColdFusion Application 
Server started."
"Information","1024","11/29/01","11:43:05",,"The ColdFusion Application 
Server started."
"Information","1024","11/29/01","11:43:40",,"The ColdFusion Application 
Server started."

this is causing it to drop session variables which is obviously not 
good. i've checked for zero byte files in the cf spool and the undelivr 
directories, but there aren't any. i don't have any 'automatically 
restart CF' things turned on either.

however, when i manually delete the files in those directories and 
restart CF, everything works fine again.. ..untill mail tries to get 
sent out again at which point, it starts restarting again.

searched the allaire forums and have seen lots of people reporting the 
same thing with unhelpful responses from support("i can't reproduce 
it..." etc) anyone else seeing this or know of a workaround?

thanks,
