Hi Tim,
I was setting up a new QMail server on Sunday and had added the new IP to
the qmqpservers file on my webserver. When I powered down the old QMail
server, I deleted the wrong IP from the file. So I was left with a
qmqpservers file with an IP address of a freshly retired QMail server. As
Mark pointed out, I should have been checking the return code when I was
generating the E-Mails. I wasn't, but will from this point on.
My take on the qmail-qmqpc was that if the server was unavailable, there was
no delivery and would be no queuing. You've confirmed that, so it's clear I
need to do a better job of 1) Administering these servers better and 2)
making sure when I create/inject an E-Mail that I bother to check that it
made it.
Thanks,
Tyrone

Can you tell us what you mean by a bad IP? Was qmail-qmqpd running on
that IP? If not, qmail-qmqpc will just skip it, according to the man
page. If so, why was it "bad"?
