Messages being delayed in the MailScanner hold queue

[Chris Barber]

Thanks Glenn, it was set to batch. 

I actually found the issue I think. Our inbound mail queue has been getting higher than the "Max Normal Queue Size =" config setting for a few hours during the day. I think this is why some messages were sitting in the hold queue and not being processed. I've increased this parameter and so far no more messages have been reported delayed. 

Thanks!
Chris

The processing mode of ms should be set to batch, not queue... Look in the conf file and you'll see.
Cheers

We have adjusted the batch sizes some, is that what you are referring to when you say default batch processing?  I don't think the system is overloaded, heavily used yes, but emails go through in seconds usually.

I also saw a response from Michael Masse that said he upgraded to the newest MailScanner to resolve this. I will try this also.


Thanks,
Chris

True, this does sound like that kind of misconfig... Either that, or a seriously overloaded system,...
