I have several customer that get messages sent back to them that qmail could not deliver their messages. One is to hotmail addresses, and my customer is getting very upset. If i reboot the server the seem to be able to send.
Read the logs and see what the error is. Then you should have a clue as to how to fix it.
which logfile do i need to look at?
I looked in the mailog and greped for error and this is what i got
