hi -- my apologies if this is badly formatted; i don't usually use
gmail for my mail and there seems to be no preview. :/

my installation is not delivering any mail since earlier this
afternoon. it's a standard debian installation; straight out of the
box, nothing special. i have not changed anything; it just stopped
working. googling for the error message has not been helpful.

the log is filled with messages like the excerpt below; i stopped and
restarted postfix which changed nothing. i looked at the messages
listed here and various other ones from earlier in the log, including
the first message for which i saw this type of entry; i see nothing
odd about them but i am not really sure what to look for. i suspect
that there is one bad message out there on which cleanup horks, but i
don't know how to find it; i am woefully unfamiliar with how postfix
works. help?

that's it. anything else that would help analyse it, just ask; i
figured i won't copy all sorts of config stuff here unless necessary.
