We're running LISTSERV for UNIX, and just learning our way around the
software, so forgive me if this is something really obvious *but*...
 
We've brought up our first active list and it's seeing quite a bit of
traffic.  Until today, it ran smoothly, but I've had trouble today with
it seeming to freeze up.  I have LISTSERV running from a window that I
can monitor from, and after running for a bit, it gets into a state
in which I can't control-C to get a prompt.  And it doesn't seem to
process any messages.  If I kill and restart the processes, it works
for awhile, provided that I clean out the lsv/tmp directory.
 
I've found a directory /var/spool/listserv that has jobs in it, some
of which have a ".error" suffix.  What does this mean, is it related?
And what's the significance of the files under lsv/tmp?
 
Any help would be most appreciated!  Thanks.
