The queue manager will move malformed queue files to the "corrupt" directory. Queue files become corrupted when they are manipulated with non-Postfix programs, or when your file system has errors. For example, one disk block is referenced by multiple files, or one disk block is referenced by a file and by the "free block" list (corruption is also possible with SSDs whose translation layer has become corrupted due to, for example, unexpected power loss). > I use postsuper -d to delete them, but they keep coming back. What command did you use? Normally postsuper does not remove files from the "corrupt" directory. > What do I need to do to get rid of these for good? That depends on the cause, see above. > Is it possible that this has been the cause for my server having > slow logins? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_does_not_imply_causation Wietse
