Topic: Too many mails sent

==== Provide required information to help troubleshoot and get quick answer ====
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version:  UBUNTU Server 11.10 64bits
- iRedMail version and backend (LDAP/MySQL):  iRedMail 0.7.4 MySQL
- Any related log? Log is helpful for troubleshooting.
====

Hi,

I have an user who is using a large distribution list from Outlook (1100 addresses). He tells me that most of the emails do not reach their destination. I checked the log file and I saw that the first 200 were delivered to the queue, and sent out. I tired to keep looking at the log file.

I guess there must be some limit on the number of emails that can be sent at once. Where can I change this parameter?, or what can I do to fix this problem?

Regards,

Re: Too many mails sent

Is there any related Postfix log about this issue? It's hard to help troubleshoot without log.

About limit on number of emails, it's controlled by Postfix setting: default_recipient_limit.
Reference: http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html# … ient_limit

I can't find any postfix log.  :-(

How do you know this issue actually happened? If it did happen, there must be some error/bounce log in Postfix log, please extract them.
