Hello, I thought I had this licked, but our queue is at 1200. ps ax shows the following: 387 ? S 0:00 qmail-remote bna.com.ar [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 388 ? S 0:00 qmail-remote BNA.COM.AR [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 389 ? S 0:00 qmail-remote bna.com.ar [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 390 ?

S 0:00 qmail-remote altec.com.ar [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] But there are only 3 messages in the entire queue with the letters bna in them. And this ps snapshot has shown these same messages for hours and hours now? Sending qmail-send an ALRM does no good. No messages fly past in the maillog indicating failure type. ALRM has no effect on the queue. I've run make check from the source tree, and the ../queue/lock/trigger file is current with proper permissions. Remote concurrency is pegged at 20/20. Would increasing this help? How do I do that. We had national DNS problems here for the last day or two, but I'm told that is fixed. We run qmail under tcpserver with pop and smtp concurrency at 150. The logs show nothing abnormal except that qmail is seriously favoring the delivery of local messages. You have to watch for a long time before it finally processes a remote message. Anyone seen anything like this before? thx - eric
