Yes, I forgot to mention that I have Amavis scanning the emails for virii. But Amavis
basically boils down to renaming qmail-remote and qmail-local to qmail-remote-real and
qmail-local-real, respectively, and linking the Amavis virus scanner program to
qmail-local and qmail-remote. I have conducted tests where I've removed these links
and renamed the files back to their original names then restarted qmail, and this has
not solved the problem. Since I did not do the original installation of qmail on this
machine, I'm not aware of any other filters.
Also, the logs don't show anything out of the ordinary. I'm looking through
/var/log/maillog. Is there some other log file that might help? I'm somewhat new to
qmail. Where would I look for other filters?
Thanks
