no, my que length was never more then 10 messages or so...

which logs? ;)
ok, i provoked the stalling (i'm sure meanwhile that it stalls when
i send 7 messages to one local recipient at once.) and attach the
logs...
oups.. i just realise that my logging looks strange. the message
came into the system at 0:33 (timestamps of the file sin
/var/qmail/todo).
all my qmail logs (created with maillog) look the same?! i
attached the tail -30 output, converted to syslog format, of the
relevant logs.. what goes wrong here?
