Apologies

It was in the queues/incoming directory


So show us those mails.
Man postqueue, man postcat.
Include relevant logging as well, to show any delivery attempts - grep the logs for the Queue ID.

# perl qshape.pl

16 messages in the incoming + active queues.
I don't know where you get the 384 figure from, but it's not postfix.

Run it for message distribution instead:

    # qshape -s incoming

One message could have 100 recipients for all we know.


What would cause the old files in the queues directory not to be cleared out.

That situation is unlikely to occur, if ever.
If they are not picked up, they were not sent either.
