Hi there;
I've just noticed that all the mail on my machine has been backed up since
about the 17th and I can't think what I've done to my machine to cause
this. Every time it tries to deliver mail (mostly by my pitiful attempts
to 'killall -ALRM qmail-send') I get log messages like this:
Jan 22 15:36:24 meb39 qmail: 917019384.796554 delivery 90: deferral:
Sorry,_I_wasn't_able_to_establish_an_SMTP_connection._(#4.4.1)/
Jan 22 15:36:24 meb39 qmail: 917019384.796724 status: local 0/10 remote 2/20
etc. for every message. I took a little look at the qmail-remote source
and this error seems to be some 'default' action for when something times
out.
The only thing I did a while ago was change my mailer from Netscape to
KMail, both of which injected mail into qmail via SMTP to localhost, and I
can't see anything fishy with the queue files (though I'm not sure I'd
know what to look for).
can anyone help me out?
cheers,
