Hi All, I'm plesk control panel administrator. In this few days I found there are many deferred message in mailq and I know that hosting server is sending hug spam message out. Here is the log from postfix.

Please give me an excuse I did ask plesk support but no solution or here is not the right place to ask these kind of question but I hope you all has experience on this or at least give me some advises. It's possible for postfix or maybe smtp client to trace which directory sending message from? or any advise how to prevent or solve this problem? or extend log file so that I have more possibilities to find out where is the problem come from?
