Re: HELP!! Thousands of files stuck in spool at 'transport' state

Fri, 16 Jun 2006 10:37:57 -0700

sorry... in my panic i forgot the useful info... Windows server 2003, james 2.2.0.0a17
Nothing out of the ordinary in the config. Pretty basic config with typical spam check mailets. About 40 domains are hosted. Again this has worked for weeks since any change, and has worked for years overall. 


Don't see anything wrong with the DNS.  (I can get to web sites from the 
browser)... Again, there are NO error messages anywhere.  Every time I 
restart the server, it tries one outgoing (the same one each time).  It says 
it can't connect to port 25 on the ip address.  Tries several times, and 
that's the last thing delivery attempt.  Granted the IP address for the 
target may be bogus (a lot of these are spam bounces...).  But why would 
James decide not to continue to the next outgoing email.  I know for a fact 
that many of the queued up emails are valid ip addresses.



From the logs it looks about about 4 emails got sent out around 5am.  Why it 

decided to try to send a 3 or 4 at that time and then stop is puzzling.  The 
previous successful send was around 11pm last night.

What is your James version? What is your operative system? What is your 
configuration?


Then a first guess: is anything happened to your DNS server?

About 24 hours ago, all of a sudden James stopped sending mail to remote

sites.  Actually it still will trickle one or two out.  But I have 
thousands

of emails backed up in the spool table with the message_state of
“transport”.

I’ve turned on debug level in the logs.  Nothing.  No error messages.  It

simply processes through the mailet chain to “RemoteDelivery”, then 
appears

to simply forget about it.


When I grep on the log directory for “Attempting delivery”, it has a 
couple

of entries about 20 minutes apart.  That’s it!

I’ve rebooted the entire machine with no change.


I haven’t made any changes to James or anything else on the server in 
weeks.


Help!!! Where do I look to figure out what’s happening??

Thanks
