I don't think we are running postqueue or mailq, not intentionally. There is a prometheus exporter that monitors the queue but uses 'find' in the spool directory to do so. I see a few 'showq' processes that are childs of 'master' running all the time though. > Now, Postfix queue files don't repair themselves spontaneously. > Before I go off with speculation, I have a few questions to narrow > the search: > > - Is only the showq process affected or other programs, too?

Restarting postfix or the server does not change, so I continue to see it with new mails. So I am able to reproduce it, now sure how or why though :) > - Are you using a special malloc library? This is with stock RHEL 8.2 running postfix-3.3.1-12.el8 without many additions or changes. Thank you -- Mehmet
