thank you for the reply -
postfix should put that mail in a HOLD que - and leave it there - until mailscanner picks it up

explain this then:

Sep  2 12:59:56 mail postfix/smtpd[18291]: 5FCB69B672: client=smtp4.ksc.net.th[203.107.131.215]
Sep  2 13:00:02 mail postfix/cleanup[18325]: 5FCB69B672: hold: header Received: from smtp4.ksc.net.th (smtp4.ksc.net.th [203.107.131.215])??by mail.louiskarol.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5FCB69B672??for <ros@louiskarol.com>; Fri,  2 Sep 2005 12:59:55 +0200 (SAST) from smtp4.ksc.net.th[203.107.131.215]; from=<reservation@hoteltravel.com> to=<ros@louiskarol.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp4.ksc.net.th>
Sep  2 13:00:02 mail postfix/cleanup[18325]: 5FCB69B672: hold: header Received: from mailserver2k.htn.hoteltravel.com (mail1.htn.hoteltravel.com [203.155.201.131])??by smtp4.ksc.net.th (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6B1A6135856??for <ros@louiskarol.com>; Fri,  2 Sep 2005 17:34 from smtp4.ksc.net.th[203.107.131.215]; from=<reservation@hoteltravel.com> to=<ros@louiskarol.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp4.ksc.net.th>
Sep  2 13:00:02 mail postfix/cleanup[18325]: 5FCB69B672: message-id=<C1849E56A0456148ADC76458F56BC8EF7D24E2@mails

mail root # cd /var/spool/postfix
mail postfix # find . -name '*5FCB69B672*' -print
./incoming/5/5FCB69B672
mail postfix #            

question: did you read my whole post or just the first line before running for the can of gasoline and the matches?
easy with that trigger finger bob

please explain why that message is in incoming and NOT in HOLD where it should be..

thank you,

Winston

i am using postfix [mail_version = 2.1.5] and mailscanner
now i have heard about the beef between mailscanner and postfix but that 
is none of my concern. all i merely want is advice and help.
    

So you know it doesn't work but you'd still like it to work? Of course 
it's your concern, you're using a setup which will loose mail.
