[Asterisk-Users] Daily Reboot Script for Asterisk Question

[Mojo with Horan & Company, LLC]

This happened to me when a zap line stayed open and recorded a 
bazillion-hour voicemail of silence.  You can imagine that procmail and 
sendmail didn't really like the 2GB file that was produced.  They would 
begin processing it, fill up the memory and swap space, and then before 
the messages was completely processed procmail or sendmail would be 
booted 'cause out of memory.

I can't remember where the file was, it was in a temp folder somewhere. 
  when I deleted it these problems quit happening (they would have stuck 
around 'till the message was successfully sent, which couldn't happen 
unless I stuck a few more gigs of ram in there)
