Why is the out queue backlogged with 120 messages? Why are there 121 messages being retried. What is in Mailman's smtp-failure log? What does Mailman's smtp log look like? Does it show evidence of 'continuous processing'? >There are 8 Incoming, 8 Outgoing, 4 Retry and 4 Bounce qrunners on the server. Why so many runners? Do you really need that much parallelism? The issue appears to be a backlogged 'out' queue. In order to say more, we need to know what's causing all the retries (smtp-failure log) and whether there are outgoing messages taking inordinately long to process (smtp log). -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
