off topic
Hi It's a little bit off topic, but does anywhere know which ports to open on my firewall so that qmail works correctly. At the moment I've opend dns,smtp and pop3 but when i activate the firewall some messages can't be delivered (wasn't able to establish an smtp connection), but when i try to telnet to the specified rcpt-server everything works really fine. So what happend here ? (if i open the firewall for everything, then the messages are leaving the queue) Pichler Wolfgang Dialog Austria Software Telekommunikation Ges.m.b.H.

queue is getting larger
Hi i've installed qmail on my SuSE 7.2 running nearly perfectly. Nearly because of one problem: My queue gets larger and larger, the problem is that qmail-send - qmail-remote waits really long (about 1 day in some cases) to start delivery for some messages. (Only some recipent mail servers). I really don't know on what qmail-remote fails (if i telnet to this mail servers on port 25 everthing works really fine). I need something that processes immediadtly all messages in the queue - else i will get realy big problems. QMail is running supervised and qmail-tcpok + svc -a qmail-send doesn't send all messages in the queue. Can anyone help ? (hope this message will be deliverd in the next few hours) Pichler Wolfgang Dialog Austria Software Telekommunikation Ges.m.b.H.

AW: log files
hi the qmail-send/run only executes the /var/qmail/rc script (so its nearly the same). And at the first time I havn't had the multilog command in /var/qmail/run, i've then added it because the log doesn't worked for me. And it still doesn't work. -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Charles Cazabon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 9.
