Scalix Forums

We seem to have delays of up to 10mins on outgoing email now.

It always seems to be processing 1 message at at time.

Sending messages directly from the box via command prompt is instanteneous (ls |cat mailx -s hello me@mydomain.com), and I don't think they actually go through scalix.

Do we need to increase # of processes that can process the mail on scalix side in some way?

We do have antivirus and spam assasin running on the box. The load is miniscule.

Hi Andrey,

outgoing email is passed to the sendmail daemon by Scalix and then sent by sendmail in the usual way.

Can you see if the messages are hanging in the sendmail queue, or hanging in Scalix? Try the mailq command to see the sendmail queue. Do you see any errors in the Scalix log (omshowlog) that might point to the problem? Post those if you find any.
