Hai,
Past 2 days i have one problem, Local Delivery Service was stopped automatically and all the mails are queued. If i start the service, once again it stopped when it process some particular mail from the queue. If i delet that mail from queue it working fine. It happens 3 times within 2 day.
When i check with log i received this
ERROR Local Delivery(Local Delivery) 09.25.07 15:13:25
[OM 24520] The PDL contains no members, hence expansion will not occur.
Last Msg Id: 00d201c7ffb0(036)8b
Last Msg DirectRef: 001059ba75b6582e
Any suggestions or solutions please

When local delivery stops, how does "omstat -s" report its state? Is it "Aborted", "Partially Aborted" or "Stopped"?
It may be that the messages you are receiving are causing it problems. In which case, it would be useful to get a copy of one for diagnosis. You can use omqdump to output a message from the LOCAL queue to a group of files.
omqdump's password is 'A##E' where ## is the current day of the month + 10.
Use the "g" command to GET the message from the queue.
Use the "o" command to output the open message to files.
For convenience, you might want to tar up and gzip the files, so you only need to attach one thing to the bug.
To automate the restarting of local delivery and various other good things, you might want to consider using ommaint from cron. See

When omqdump prints that banner, it is expecting you to type in the password (A##E' where ## is the current day of the month + 10)
You may find that after restarting local delivery this many times, your message has been moved to the POISON queue.

Yes, You are correct those mails are moved to Poison Queue. It is happen only we send the mail to some group, that is more than 400 receipient.
Is that scalix having any recepient restriction per mail ?
