I posted a message yesterday but haven't heard anything back.
Our news server feeds posts to mailing list (qmail / ezmlml). Here is
an error received from qmail:

now according to some earlier posting:
-----------------------
A quick grep of qmail-smtpd.c shows that a 451 can only be generated due
to an internal problem with qmail-queue or a resource limit is exceeded.
-----------------------
I have stopped qmail-send last night. Only qmail-smtpd, qmail-queue and
qmail-inject are running. The same messages (repeated over and over)
are piling up in queue/mess/. If this was an internal qmail-queue
problem what could be the fix? Any troubleshooting ideas? We are
running inetd. We have had this configuration work successfully for
around a year, no changes were done recently...
thanks
