Hi.

I am using postfix to send 1 email with several hundreds of thousands of
recipients (NOT SPAM). While sending the email, i have noticed that i have
about 300 bounce processes running, while it should not be the case, and
they are probably doing nothing - because of the messages in the log :

Sep 11 16:02:10 w7 postfix/smtp[6816]: warning: 4722E143BE: defer service
failure
Sep 11 16:02:11 w7 postfix/bounce[10225]: fatal: lock file defer 4722E143BE:

Resource temporarily unavailable

lot's of them...

I don't get any errors in messages log, so i don't think that open files
amount is the problem, i upped them before to 20000 ...

Any ideas ? I haven't seen this when using my postfix box for normal
email...

Thank you.

P.S. Please cc the replies to me, i am on the digest list ...
