Obscure error (transport is not available)

[alimovz]

Hey guys.

I am getting this error in my mail.log

Mar 18 03:51:46 oaxy postfix/qmgr[12982]: C293E139625F: to=<mangoley@server.com>, relay=none, delay=103379, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable)
Mar 18 03:51:47 oaxy postfix/qmgr[12982]: C39A11396296: to=<red8@server.com>, relay=none, delay=103379, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable)
Mar 18 03:51:47 oaxy postfix/qmgr[12982]: 64CEE1516B6F: to=<tls2@server.com>, relay=none, delay=154981, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable)

Now along with that I still get these messages:

Mar 18 03:49:33 oaxy postfix/lmtp[27974]: 57CBC14A6EDE: to=<bk@server.com>, relay=server.com[64.128.117.162], delay=155082, status=sent (250 2.1.5 OK)

which means that some messages are still getting delivered.

My thought is lmtp cannot handle all the incoming mail to deliver to zimbra store. The amount that it can handle gets delivered, other mail gets deferred.

I would love to hear comments from you guys as I am simply guessing.

Thanks

Did you change the main.cf?

Found this on the net:>

I completely took that variable out.
I am thinking if it was due to the antivirus, no messages would get delivered. But I see messages get in users' mailboxes fine, they just don't get there as fast as they get to postfix.

The problem with having amavisd process messages is that it slows the process down significantly.

Yeah, I remember you were having that problem.
Because all of the zimbra components are built in, it's not a very good idea to simply remove parts of the main.cf file.

Your better option may be to wait until we get the bug fixed.
