Hello all, Once in a while one of my users (and this is always the same one) stops getting e-mails, and this is what I see in the logs:
# grep 3ED8314F024 /var/log/mail Sep 20 05:58:25 mail postfix/smtpd[31183]: 3ED8314F024: client=localhost[127.0.0.1] Sep 20 05:58:25 mail postfix/cleanup[31179]: 3ED8314F024: message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sep 20 05:58:25 mail postfix/qmgr[4632]: 3ED8314F024: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=59674, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Sep 20 05:58:25 mail amavis[31099]: (31099-04) FWD via SMTP: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,BODY=7BIT 250 2.6.0 Ok, id=31099-04, from MTA([127.0.0.1]:10025): 250 Ok: queued as 3ED8314F024 Sep 20 05:58:25 mail amavis[31099]: (31099-04) Passed CLEAN, [128.230.108.46] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, mail_id: 9ObScyAvZeGF, Hits: -5.021, size: 58979, queued_as: 3ED8314F024, 7040 ms Sep 20 05:58:25 mail postfix/smtp[31180]: 3BF9A190FB: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1], delay=8, status=sent (250 Ok: queued as 3ED8314F024) Sep 20 06:46:10 mail postfix/lmtp[31653]: 3ED8314F024: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, orig_to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp], delay=2865, status=deferred (conversation with /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp] timed out while sending end of data -- message may be sent more than once) Sep 20 06:50:27 mail postfix/qmgr[4632]: 3ED8314F024: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=59674, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Sep 20 07:50:32 mail postfix/lmtp[32493]: 3ED8314F024: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, orig_to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp], delay=6727, status=deferred (conversation with /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp] timed out while sending end of data -- message may be sent more than once) Sep 20 07:57:07 mail postfix/qmgr[4632]: 3ED8314F024: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=59674, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Sep 20 08:36:38 mail postfix/lmtp[800]: 3ED8314F024: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, orig_to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=none, delay=9493, status=deferred (connect to /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp]: Connection refused) My system is SLES10: postfix-2.1.1-2 cyrus-imapd-devel-2.2.3-83.5 cyrus-sasl-2.1.18-33.8 cyrus-sasl-gssapi-2.1.18-33.1 cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.18-33.1 cyrus-imapd-2.2.3-83.35 The only thing that helps is to restart postfix. Then the queue is empties and all got back to normal. Anyone have any idea how to avoid this situation in the future and what could cause that?
