Hi, thanks for that. I had to restart the server, but I'm updating those items, and others now. If it plays up again, I'll come back to this thread.

Thanks for helping

My iRedMail installation has been running for ages but in the last 6-12 months this situation has started happening every week, two or three. Right now I have items collecting in my Postfix mail queue. My server doesn't seem to have /etc/init.d/clamav to restart, but I have restarted amavisd with no success. They only way I get mail flowing again is to restart the server, which I will have to shortly, so that the mail gets processed.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Scott
