I'm having what seem to be "random" X crashes. After each crash, I get an
e-mail similar to the following (my 2 questions appear after the included
e-mail and I've included part of the postfix log at the end of this post):
The e-mail has the subject "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender" and here it
is:
From: Mail Delivery System <MAILER-DAEMON_at_shlomo1.solomon>
To: root_at_shlomo1.solomon
Date: Yesterday 01:00:22
This is the Postfix program at host shlomo1.solomon.
I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.
For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>
If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.
The Postfix program
<root_at_localhost.localdomain>: Host or domain name not found. Name service
error for name=localhost.localdomain type=A: Host not found
ATTENTION!
Your process (X) was killed because it consumed too much CPU time (3.51 %) and
caused a too high server load of 6.17
Please check your configuration immediately to avoid further negative
influence on the system.
The e-mail also includes the following attachment:
Final-Recipient: rfc822; root_at_localhost.localdomain
Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; Host or domain name not found. Name service error
for name=localhost.localdomain type=A: Host not found
---->>>>>>>>
Here are my questions:
1 - Who or what is killing X and why is 3.51% a high enough load to decide to
kill X? BTW - thie pecentage varies and is sometimes very high, but usually
not.
2 - I don't know why these e-mails are being sent to
root_at_localhost.localdomain instead of root_at_shlomo1.solomon and get "returned"
as undelivered mail? In this case, it probably doesn't matter since root is
the sender AND the receiver so I do get the mail, BUT, obviously something is
screwed up. I should say that I have an alias properly defined and "root"
mail is sent to regular user "solomon".

Here is /var/log/mail/info for the relevant time. I see that the mail is being
bounced, but not what's causing the problem:
