Hi all... I was doing some tests with all the recommendations you sent me... and I can make to work the server correctly... I was filtering spam with no problems and my performances troubles dissapeard... I just configured 5 procs for amavis and postfix content filter and I turn off the network tests... the server can filter a lot of spam and delivery quickly... but now appears another problem :(
Until today morning... I was filtering and deliverying fine, but suddenly I received these messages and the delivery is sooo slow and the mail queue just is growing and growing....
