Hi all,

Since one month I noticed that my queue never decreases
I begin to panic because it s become huge like a blackhole.
Since one month I monitored regulary the queue and it 's started at 278.000
and now one month after I ve got more than 6.000.000 in the queue !

The command i use is:
find /var/spool/postfix/incoming/ -type f -follow | wc -l

my postconf -n:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases

-Please could you help me resolving this incredible increasing queue ?
-What can I do from my side to identify the problem if not enough
information ?
-Do I have to install qshape to diagnostic better ?

Thanks in advance
