Mail Not Routing, stuck in /var/spool/mqueue.in

[Randy Fishel]

  I have been using Sophossavi since I upgraded to MS4, and havn't
noticed any descrete problems.  However, in the last week I have seen a
significant drop in virus notifications on one of the servers I maintain.
Could be that this domain has been well protected such as it's users
aren't infected, and that other users that have these users in their
address books have been well protected.  Could also be because we are not
catching all the viruses (though I would expect that someone inside would
have either been infected, or would have found an attempted infection).

  So my question is more on the line of if I should be concerned that the
Sophossavi implementation, though faster, might not protect as well (and I
would much prefer slower and secure over faster and not)?  Is there
something I could turn on to make sure that things are functioning
correctly?
