Response to: Deferred Looping?

It's possible that you're suffering from the (procmail) case sensitive username delivery problem mentioned elsewhere in these followup notes - a solution is also provided. You can verify this easily by sending a message to one of your users with the username in upper case.


You can debug a deferred message using the file name of the message from a directory listing of "/var/spool/postfix/deferred/*/*" as the "queue-id" argument in the "postsuper" command, as follows:


postsuper -r 5DF2216EDC4 deferred


(where "5DF2216EDC4" is the filename of the message)


This will cause the message to be requeued immediately, with new entries in "/var/log/mail.log" that you can work with.

    And once you've fixed the problem you can cause all the deferred messages to be delivered with the command ...

    postsuper -r ALL deferred
