Hi,
This is Nasser.
I'm running postfix-2.5.5,1 on FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE .
Today I take a look at my graphs and see there are about 1500 Email in
Queue.
Then I run mailq on the server and see lots of messages like this:
(delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with
mail.xyz.ab[1.2.3.4] while receiving the initial server greeting)
What does lost connection with ... while receiving the initial server
greeting) means?
Is it related to my configuration?
I think it is nearly impossible to tell unless we know the hostname/
IP. It could be the remote server is down, and will come up soon, it
could be a odd router inbetween, or it could be your config, or your
DNS. It could be any number of things.
You do not have to give up the email address, just the host you are
trying to talk to, which is public in nature, at least in most cases.
