I hope you can help. I am having a problem where I have a large queue almost every day for about 12 hours. I upgraded to Ver 8.03 from 6.05 because of this problem. I was hoping the Queue manager would be able to handle it but it seems as though Declude has a lot to do with it since the emails are not making it out of the overflow directory:
10/14/2003 09:54a 152 Qffff041a01de5ec1.SMD 10/14/2003 09:54a 148 Qffff083300505f8c.SMD 10/14/2003 09:54a 152 Qffff086701205e92.SMD 10/14/2003 12:52p 108 QH77EF.tmp
That's part of Declude Queue, which handles the \IMail\spool\overflow directory. Declude Queue will get those E-mails out as fast as IMail can handle them, with one catch: there has to be incoming E-mail, too. If you have a server that doesn't have any incoming E-mail, then E-mail could sit in the overflow directory. If that isn't the case, then you have either reached the limits of your server, or there is a configuration issue (such as a DNS server that isn't responding).
Could you please give me some advice? Mail is flowing as it is...I can send and receive internationally just fine. It just won't empty the queue. I have mail in the overflow directory for more than 12 hours now. This has been happening for a while. (2 months)
If you want, you can move all the \IMail\spool\overflow files back to the \IMail\spool directory, and IMail will send them out by itself. However, if E-mail starts accumulating in the \IMail\spool\overflow directory again, it means that IMail can't process the mail as fast as it is coming in.
It is also worth spot-checking several of the D*.SMD files in the spool directory, to see if there is a pattern (such as a spammer sending out mail, or a mail loop or virus).
