Ok, finally...here's a follow up to this old thread. I switched all traffic back to a 7.13 box for 3 weeks with no incident. The 7.13 was receiving from the same inbound gateway and delivering to the same outbound gateway as this 8.10 box. 3 days ago I switched the traffic back to the 8.10 box and just this morning the spool and overflow folders started filling again. Got up to 1,000 files before our monitoring alerts kicked off (BTW - whoever recommended ks-soft.com, thanks!, it's great).
I did a netstat -a as someone recommended and this is what I got. Finally killed the netstat after about 500 of these: TCP mail2:2537 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2538 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2541 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2548 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2563 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2564 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2568 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2580 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2592 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2595 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2597 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2600 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2608 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2613 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2615 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2616 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2618 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2619 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2620 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2622 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2626 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2628 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2629 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2630 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2631 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2632 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2633 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2645 :0 LISTENING TCP mail2:2646 :0 LISTENING I did not get the "connect fail...no buffer space" error in the Imail logs this time and the machine did recover, however, I think this was the beginning of the same issue. Any ideas now? Why would all of these tcp sessions be in a listening state with no foreign address? This box cannot be accessed from the Internet, it can only be accessed/access Postfix servers in the DMZ. I'm not to familiar with netstat, does this mean Imail is trying to deliver a message and it's listening for a response to a TCP session it has initiated?
