Dear List,
I am having problems with postfix where email gets stuck in the queue
for no reason.
Nothing has changed recently on the mail server and out of the blue
postfix created this problem where emails will either be delivered
just fine or they will end up in the queue and will not be delivered
until manual action is taken.
I have searched through the lists on the internet and tried several
things including upgrading postfix to the latest version, run postfix
flush, run postfix set-permissions etc but nothing seems to help. Even
emails sent locally on the server end up in the queue and at this
point I have no idea where to look anymore.
I also do not see any specific errors in the maillog.
a short version of mailq output:
-Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------
