Understood. Thanks! I should have known from the past (see below). > > You need to figure out why messages are placed on the hold queue. > One example is when a Milter returns a "quarantine" action.

Yeah, you actually configure Postfix to put all incoming messages in the hold queue, MailScanner scans it and puts it actively in the delivery queue. rspamd doesn't put them to quarantine. If I requeue the message with -r it is put on hold again very soon. According to man postsuper the requeue does not subject it to the milter again. But I will take it out of the equation for now to be sure. It looks to me like I must have disabled any attempt to deliver to a transport at all. Kai
