A write(2) operation to the standard output stream failed,
and the last system error code was EIO (I/O error).
Postqueue will not complain about EPIPE (broken pipe) errors because
those are common when output is piped into a program. Postqueue output
is often piped into a program because the output can be long.
What was the output from postqueue being written to?
