The command mailq tells me "Mail queue is empty" most of the time unless I happen to get in there at the right time there maybe a few messages (less than five usually) but for the most part it is empty.
We did have what may have been a DNS issue earlier today so I did swap the relay host in postfix to an IP because things were building up but it has been basically clear since then. I did a run some counts on the files in /var/spool/mailman and the total was just over 11K with the majority being in the out queue and a few hundred in the bad queue but the rest were clear.

Once Mailman delivers to the outgoing MTA (Postfix), it has no further involvement. This is a Postfix issue. Are the messages in Postfix deferred queue? What does Postfix `mailq` say about them? -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
