sendemail function is not working

Our sendemail function seems to have stopped working or is only working sporadically as it might send email the next day for an issue that occurred the day before or it may not send anything at all.  Has anyone seen this before?  We did in the past and edited the sendemail.py for that one, but this issue is brand new and we're seeing it in our 7.2.6 environment and in our 8.1.2 environment.  We are a clustered environment.

Did you try looking at the logs as I suggested?
