I have a feeling it has something to do with this: postfix/sendmail[29314]: fatal: no login name found for user ID 1095
Why is postfix trying to use a non existing user? I did not compile it with any preset users and I do have the postfix user and group, where is it getting that user id from?

Chances are high that amavis starts scanning the mail but never stops and thus the mail never leaves the hold queu, try commenting out amavis from postfix n see whether mails go. sent from SamSung Mobile On May 10, 2013 1:23 AM, "Postfix" <postfix_l...@ibcnetwork.com> wrote: The logs don't have any errors for postfix. Postfix shows it receiving email, etc. Telnet gives me a response from amavis new. The only thing I see in the logs related to amavis that might be an error is: May 9 11:18:01 /USR/SBIN/CRON[22335]: (amavis) CMD (test -e /usr/sbin/amavisd-new-cronjob && /usr/sbin/amavisd-new-cronjob sa-sync) May 9 11:18:01 /USR/SBIN/CRON[22334]: (amavis) MAIL (mailed 1 byte of output; but got status 0x004b, #012) Not sure what that means.

Start with the basics... Is amavis running? Does amavis answer if you "telnet 127.0.0.1 10024"?
