The error message is taken from the last failed delivery that caused delivery to be suspended. Delivery is suspended when multiple consecutive message deliveries are aborted by connection problems (not just invalid/refused recipients). The number of messages is by default the concurrency limit for the destination. Some users set very low concurrency limits for destinations such as Yahoo or Hotmail, hoping that this will help avoid rate limits imposed by the provider. One consequence of such low limits is that delivery is far more likely to be suspended in the face of a small burst of errors. This is especially likely if you configure a rate delay for the destination, which effectively sets the concurrency limit to 1. You'll get better help if you post your postconf -n configuration settings as requested in http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail;. You should also look further back in your log and find the actual deliveries that trigger the problem (the ones that don't have delivery temporarily suspended in the error reason). You'll see how many consecutive failures of this sort it took to throttle (suspend) delivery to Hotmail. -- Viktor.
lost connection with [] while sending RCPT TO
Hello, Today i had a mail that stuck in the queue with error: lost connection with mail.someserver.xxx [xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] while sending RCPT TO), so i looked at logs. During the session, their server sent mail: from= to=mail.someserver.xxx-1237585487-test...@mydomain.com proto=SMTP helo=mail.someserver.xxx and got greylisted each time. After this, mail ended in deferred. So I whitelisted their adress(postgrey), flushed the queue. Again their server sent a test message, got answer user unknown and finally my mail was delivered. Is it common to send such testing messages ? Regards, Tomasz
