searching in google, I found that removing the file (/var/log/exim4/paniclog) solves the problem. That was an error with debian vesta when bad the owner to put dkim file, apparently paniclog if not deleted mail keep coming all day.

technically you shouldn't delete the paniclog file, rather you should empty it using vim or nano, but you may want to save what's written down in case you need to troubleshoot.
