mail not process

[kengheng]

I have encounted a strange problem here, all the 
mails I send are kept in the queue and in unprocess state:

# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-qstatmessages in queue: 
8messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 8
when I issued this command:
# ps -A | grep qmail#I get nothing result, 
the mail server is a fresh installation and I have follow the qmail-HowTo doc 


thanks

Obviously your installation isn't working, or qmail would be running. My
best guess is that you *didn't* follow the directions, especially the ones
about running the qmail scripts under csh instead of some other shell.

Better yet, start over with the www.lifewithqmail.org directions, instead
of the ones that come with qmail itself.

Perfectly normal.

 when I issued this command:
 # ps -A | grep qmail

qmail isn't running.  You didn't start it.  Therefore it never processes any
messages from the queue.  Read the HowTo again, or better yet, do a Life with
qmail install by following Dave Sill's excellent instructions at
www.lifewithqmail.org .
