There are many ways this can happen. - One example is that all mail is sent to the deferred queue. - Another example is that your queue manager has stopped. And there are a bazillion other examples. This requires that you learn to read Postfix logfiles. http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#logging In all cases, when no mail is given to the smtp clients, they are out of work and terminate after 100s.
