Messages Being Delayed

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

I started a thread on this some time ago, but got lost in other  
things, so sorry for starting over.

I use sendmail and mailman and sophos puremessage for unix.  When  
email is received to a user it is delivered essentially instantly.  
When an email is sent to a mailman list the message is ending up in  
the sendmail mailq and not being sent until the queue is re-
processed.  Please direct me as to what log information would be  
helpful in troubleshooting this.

Thanks
-Troy

I think the cause of your problem was identified at

No, I tried that and it still places it in the queue.

define(`confDELIVERY_MODE',`background')dnl

Do you still have

>So I made it  /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -ODeliveryMode=defer \
>        -ODaemonPortOptions=Name=MSA,Port=1313,M=E,Addr=127.0.0.1

as the sendmail command to start the mailman listener?

Did you try changing that to

/usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -ODeliveryMode=b \
        -ODaemonPortOptions=Name=MSA,Port=1313,M=E,Addr=127.0.0.1

In case anyone ever runs into this, I finally figured it out.  Mail  
programs are considered expensive and by default sendmail has  
HoldExpensive set to true.  So I added this to my sendmail.mc file and  
re-compiled.  Messages are now delivered instantly.

define(`confCON_EXPENSIVE',false)
