Thanks, John.

How can I determine if it is down? I opened a telnet session on port 10031 to 
localhost and it connected. I didn't issue any commands, though, if you have 
some testing suggestions. Also, the logs show that postfix-policyd connected 
(including showing the current threshold), then went through the process of 
sending the first message. The first message was sent and immediately received. 
The next messages all showed "NOQUEUE: reject: ... Policy Rejection- Quota 
Exceeded". After 10 minutes, it then showed a series of connections:

The messages were never sent after this point.

Thanks,

Looks as if policyd is down and postfix could not connect, which is why 
it is deferred. Note the error message when trying to connect to 
policyd. Because postfix could not connect to the policyd server, it 
temporarily rejects the message (dsn=4.2.2, deferred).
