Start here: http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html pay particular attention to: http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#logging If you need more help, we need detailed information of the configuration and standard (NOT verbose) logging. Without such information we're just guessing. My first guess is that this isn't a resource problem and the logs have more detail in a different message. http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail -- Noel Jones
