Hello,
OS: Win2K, SP2, IIS Roll-up E2K: Native, SP2, Admin patch, Trend 6.0, Scan engine Post SP2 I noticed that our Queue for Yahoo.com would get up to the thousands sometimes. Deleting the top four or five "problem" messages and then a FORCE CONNECTION would rapidly clear them all out. It doesn't appear Email to other outbound hosts are effected. The "problem" messages (a red bulls-eye on the envelope icon) would have a 'Detail status' of "retry", and the entire Yahoo.com queue would have a status of "Retry. Remote Delivery. The connection was dropped by the remote host." The problem messages are usually just SPAM destined for some of our users who are setup with Forwards to their Yahoo email accounts. Doesn't appear to be related to size of the message, etc... I haven't turned up logging etc.... as I'm hoping someone else will make the PSS call and go through the hassles of getting a Hotfix out. Thanks. :-) Brent -----Original Message----- From: John Q Jr. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Tuesday, June 04, 2002 3:47 PM Posted To: MS Exchange List Conversation: Messages building in queue Subject: Re: Messages building in queue Has anyone else had issues with mail queuing for a week, then sending when forced. Should I be forcing mail to send from the queue on a regular basis, that seems odd. ============================= When I installed HotFix Q287678 on my Exchange 2000 server that already had SP2 the system stopped all the Exchange services, as expected, but a few odd things happened. 1) The queue was cleared, does this occur everytime you shutdown the E2K services? 2) Duplicate messages were re-sent to users, dating back to May 22nd. I found no significance of that date (i.e. the last time the services were stopped & started, or system was rebooted occurred more recently). Not all messages just a few dozen. Anyone have any idea what caused this? 3) When the queue was cleared, about 60 messages had been sitting in the queue finally sent. The oldest message I could track dated back to May 14th. I am at fault for not checking the queue more often, but it appears that these 60 messages were stuck in the queue for what ever reason. What I don't understand is why most of these messages, a few thousand a day were sent w/o issue, some to some of the same domains as some of the stuck messages, sent fine and others did not. Finally, why did user not get NDR's, they are set to send after 5 days of attempts have failed. Thank you, - John Q P.S. Any input appreciated. ----- Original Message ----- > > > _________________________________________________________________ > List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm > Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp > To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
