please post your entire setup, put it in your signature. if this is in some way related to a specific build/version of Vicidial ... you may never get an answer until you do. So put it in your signature so you never forget and those who are helping you can realize immediately if you have a "version" or "build" specific issue ...

have you LOOKED in those files? how do you know they are related to vicidial?

Hi All,
I foound what is clientmqueue ?

When submitting mail by using sendmail as a mail submission program,
sendmail copies all messages to /var/spool/clientmqueue first. sendmail is
a setgid smmsp program and thus gives the any user the permission to do so
(/var/spool/clientmqueue belongs to user and group smmsp).

Later, another sendmail process, the sendmail localhost-only (FreeBSD
default config) mail transfer agent (MTA) copies the messages from
/var/spool/clientmqueue to /var/spool/mqueue and sends them to their
destination.

When files accumulate in /var/spool/clientmqueue, you probably don't run
the sendmail localhost MTA, and thus the mails don't get send.
