Hi all,

Well, I am still having trouble with my mailq. It seems that the memory based queue is always full (still) and local deliveries are being dropped to the disk queue and never retreived again (cause the queuelo is never reached and if it was, there would be no room in the memory queue to read new messages anyway).

I have tried many different things and think the biggest issue is that I have a number of messages in the disk queue which are slowing down the deliveries. I have tried running a cancelmsg on these junk messages, however, it has not removed the message from the queue as the dsn still has to go.

Perhaps the problem is with my module.function files. Here are my current PRIORITY, MAXDELS, and MAXHOST values. Please let me know if I am way off base with these settings (note, I am not using uucp or fax):

module.dsn PRIORITY = 99 MAXDELS = 50

module.esmtp PRIORITY = 50 MAXDELS = 100 MAXHOST = 90 MAXRCPT = 100

module.local PRIORITY = 10 MAXDELS = 1000 MAXHOST = 900

If these settings are not way off base. And if there is no way to delete messages from the queue without generating a bounce, is anyone interested in doing some consulting for me to help optimize my production server which has been lagging for a month? If you are interested in having a look for a reasonable cost, please respond directly to me and we can get started.
