Hi to all.

I have 200 users and my version of Scalix is the 11.3.0.

Every day I check the queue of Scalix and I realize that the queue of Internet Mail Gateway is very long:

Code: Select all

root@scalix:~# omstat -s | grep -Ei 'router|local|internet|sendmail'
Service Router                Started        06.02.08       0         
Local Delivery                Started        06.02.08       0         
Internet Mail Gateway         Started        06.02.08       1565      
Local Client Interface        Enabled        06.02.08       0

I check the queue and most of the messages are SPAM.
How to force the queue to delivered all mails or delete mails marked as SPAM ?
Is normal this amount of messages?

The problem is what my Scalix accept all incoming mail form internet, and the mail create a loop with my mx2. Scalix receive one message and send to mx2, the mx2 send to scalix, and scalix send to mx2...... this situation repeat to 26 hops.

Code: Select all

omas@nostromo:~$ telnet mail.xxx.es 25
Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx...

I like than Scalix check if the user exist.
