(Sorry for the use of Outlook :-) I agree. I'm possibly wondering if there might be some issue with the mail scanner and anti-virus software. A while back I did find an issue with the hourly crontab entry for the AV. Our problems with the list started back in October when I went to New Orleans. When I got back, I found that the mailman output queue was not being emptied, and I restarted the qrunners, and since added an hourly crontab to restart the qrunners. It appears that something is causing postfix to be very slow when accepting email either locally (from localhost and asgard) or remotely. I'm not seeing anything highly unusual in the logs. While JABR and I don't have any formal division of responsibility, I've been handling most of mailman and he has been handling the web, and we share responsibilities for named and postfix. One of the major issues we do need to address better is SPAM. If we can reduce the traffic on our bandwidth, it will make us a better NEDV client. As I mentioned earlier, we are not expected to use more than a reasonable share, whatever that is. -- Jerry Feldman <Jerry.Feldman at algorithmics.com> Algorithmics, Inc 617-663-5220 -----Original Message----- Date: Wed, 03 Jan 2007 13:42:57 -0500 From: Tom Metro <blu at vl.com> I'm wondering if you have a configuration or tuning problem with your Postfix setup, as bad addresses shouldn't clog up the queue for the rest of the messages.
