Looking through our logs, I see a java process connecting to a bulk-mail

How do you know that it is sending email? Postfix logs
all email transactions, including rejects and deliveries.

I do not know. It is "supposed" to be sending our alert e-mails but all
I see is connects, disconnects and nothing else. It is like the alert
application server is sending nothing which is what I suspect.
IIRC, the first queue would be the active queue and if email files are
not found there, then something is broken on this alert application server.
Trying to find the document on the flow of email through postfix as I
write this.
The logs are as follows and this continues for a long time.

dfbbl9 is one on our alert application servers. I cannot find where any
of this mail is being stored until sent. I checked all the queues in
"var/spool/postfix/*" and do not find a single email.
Where would I look for this mail?
