Greetings Postfix-Users!!
I recently setup Postfix with a slew of other apps to fight spam, and I am
using postgrey for greylisting.
I've noticed that after a few days, I have 4000+ email messages in the queue
(as shown with
"mailq" command). And the queue is growing.
I presume this must be something to do with greylisting. I am receiving email
as normal, and everything
seems functional. I just want to be sure that having this many messages in a
queue is normal and wont
cause problems down the road. All messages in the queue are addressed to
foreign hosts and most
have "Operation Timed Out"
Should I be removing these? My instinct tells me yes!
For example:
F0F8AB18271 4871 Sun Aug 10 03:13:11 MAILER-DAEMON
(connect to <host removed>[<ip removed>]:25: Operation timed out)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks for any and all advice!
