Postfix 3.1.0-3ubuntu0.2 on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS. Postfix is responsible for sending me hourly syslog snippets and output from some other cronjobs. Since September I've been seeing the above pretty much every time it's used to send anything to me. The complete output is:
Nov 30 11:00:04 localhost postfix/pickup[16473]: A3CEA1000BDA: uid=1000 from=<chris> Nov 30 11:00:04 localhost postfix/cleanup[32236]: A3CEA1000BDA: message-id=<20171130170004.A3CEA1000BDA@cpollock.localdomain> Nov 30 11:00:04 localhost postfix/qmgr[5189]: A3CEA1000BDA: from=<cpoll o...@embarqmail.com>, size=336, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Nov 30 11:00:05 localhost postfix/smtp[32261]: A3CEA1000BDA: to=<cpollo c...@embarqmail.com>, relay=smtp.embarqmail.com[206.152.134.66]:587, delay=0.93, delays=0.58/0.25/0.11/0, dsn=4.3.4, status=deferred (host smtp.embarqmail.com[206.152.134.66] refused to talk to me: 421 4.3.4 allocated resources exceeded) I called my ISP, century link this morning and as usual with most they're clueless about anything dealing with Linux. After talking to a "tech" for about 45 minutes I just gave up. Is there anything that I can tell them if/when I call back that would give them a clue as to what's going on? I'm only sending 1 or 2 messages an hour with postfix so it's not that I'm being blocked as a spammer. Thanks for any assistance Chris -- Chris KeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705C 31.11972; -97.90167 (Elev. 1092 ft) 12:52:50 up 8 days, 1:54, 1 user, load average: 1.03, 1.96, 1.14 Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS, kernel 4.10.0-40-generic
