Every hour mailman excessive resource usage

Post by JoeVega » 2018/01/01 02:06:40

Hello, I am getting mails from my server, exactly every hour, with the same 9 messages (in different emails, all together here):

I have read in other blogs that this is normal an I need to add this to ignore, but I am worry about this might be triggered by a malware or similar. Do you know a way to know what is mailman doing in that moment? or if there is a way to know what is triggering that process?

Thanks in advance,

Joe

Ask cpanel, we do not and cannot support systems on which cpanel is installed.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
Use the FAQ Luke
