I did check; don't have email configured under this install.

I've been trying to figure out why the dual CPU is dogging so badly- and it turns out I've got a few things up there that don't make sense.

I did search, found some other threads for High CPU, but not this one.

Edit: Actually there was this thread but this was apparently fixed back in 8.3. https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/smtplib-py.9027/

Which build version are you running?

Do the processes keep restarting if you use kill -9 PID_number?

I was using beta 2? I just went to release via the upgrade. I've been watching to see when or if it came back.

Honestly was afraid to just hose a process without knowing what it was attached to.
