    Hello,

    The client mail que is getting stuck for some, but not all mails going through the system. Strange. The main maillog shows no errors. The site error logs show no errors. Again, I know some mail goes fine, because it comes to me (not using webmail, but outside the server), while the rest stays stuck. Running postfix flush does no good?

    Thanks ina advance

    Hi Falko,

    No it is not blacklisted anywhere. The odd part about mail being stuck in the queue is that, for example:

    Yesterday, I had about 15 mails dating from a range of about 3 days. I downloaded a few and viewed in a code editor to see where they were from and going. Some of the "receiving" addresses I sent a mail to at that moment, and they arrived just fine, while the others remained in the queue. Same destination, mail size very small. Strange.

    Thanks

    Clear postfix queue

    I found a guide that helped me, cause sometime I get mails which do not belong to an existing mailadress and then they get stuck in the queue. Try

    helped me out : ) finally I agree, a button to execute this command can be very useful.
    In respect I'll crosslink to the site which helped >
    Clear Out Postfix Queue, Analyze Postfix Email Queue

    regards
