My server is taking 10% CPU all of a sudden from alot of running 'exims' according to SSH, when I restart the server everything stays fine for some time.. then it comes back.. seems to be only happening to one account.. or 'root'..

Anyone have any ideas whats going on? Didn't use to do this!

Check the log files in /var/log using
tail -500 exim_mainlog
and
tail -f maillog

Check to see if someone is spamming to/from your server..

Try running /scripts/eximup --force
