Heyla,
one problem I've encountered with qmail (0.96) is:
The is a message in the queue which has been deferred, the remote site is up
(and there is only one MX record for it) and I can do a manual smtp session
with it, however when I send a SIGALRM to the qmail-send program, it doesn't
always send the message and it gets deferred again.
This can also happen when there are many messages in the queue. Some will be
sent and some won't even when they could be. If I want to flush the queue
I have to kill qmail-send and restart it. This never seems to happen for some
hosts, eg. my home machine always works (there are three MX records for it -
one of which is the machine the mail is queued on)
Does anyone know what's happening? Has it been fixed?
Is there any way I can get more information on why it's failing?
Thanks.
