Folks,
I've noticed over the years that we give people dire warnings never to
send a KILL signal to the postmaster, but I'm unsure as to what are
potential consequences of this, as in just exactly how this can result
in problems. Is there some reference I can look to for explanations
of the mechanism(s) whereby the damage occurs?
Cheers,
David.
