I see this message suddenly more frequently in the mailq. Is this message with regard to the receiving mail server or is there an internal error on our sending server?

Code: Select all

Deferred: 451 Internal Error....

Can you elaborate some more on the issue. Is it on mails sent from your system? so is mail defered on outgoing mail

Is it the sendmail q ? ( i guess so)

if it is incoming mail (so sendmail is trying to deliver it to your scalix server) what is the output of omstat -a and omstat -s

There is also a scalixqueue script in the wiki somewhere.. can you share the output of that script
