How did you install qmail on this server? Is it a QmailToaster? Is it part of Plesk? Did you follow the instructions from lifewithqmail.org or qmailrocks.org? I'm asking because it'll tell us where your configuration files are likely to be.
What do the DENIED messages from spamdyke say? Is this possibly a DNS problem? If qmail-scanner is bogging down and hanging up, my instinct would be to check any filters you have hooked into it, like SpamAssassin -- if SA is broken or stalling, it will cause everything else to run super slow. Also, is your qmail queue filling up with undelivered messages or are no messages making it through spamdyke? And obviously you should check to make sure you're not out of disk space or inodes. -- Sam Clippinger On Dec 17, 2012, at 4:46 PM, Christoph Kuhle wrote: > We did some updates today which crashed the server.
