Better still, How can I improve my queue handling so that I don't have a frustratingly long queue-its always over 100 mails long almost!
Do you use Postfix, Amavisd, and Spamassassin? I just had this start to happen on my mail system. I went for several months with this working just fine with the Standard suse setup. Now I just had to increase the SMTP server settings with master.cf and amavisd.conf. Basically the spawning of multiple servers. I can not remember the lines in master.cf. But it is the line that is like smtp - - 2 ..... change 2 to 10. Also the content_filter line a change from 2 to 10 is required. Then go into the amavisd.conf. and look for the corresponding line and change it to 10, In amavisd it can be bigger than master.cf but not smaller, but they should all be the same. This will greatly increase your ability to accept and scan email, in turn your queue is smaller or non-existent. Which is my case, we only do 20,000 emails in a day and it has made a great in-pack on receiving emails in a timely manner! have a good day. Neal
