Queue lifetime?

[killmasta93]

Hi,
Im currently trying to change the life time to 1d by default its 5d i tried running this in zimbra user

Code: Select all

 postconf -e maximal_queue_lifetime=1d

but once i restart the service or reboot it goes back to 5d, i also tried adding it to the main.cf but still goes back to 5d
any ideas?
Thank you

Try updating zimbraMtaMaximalQueueLifetime.

zmprov mcf zimbraMtaMaximalQueueLifetime 1d

or

zmprov ms mta.example.com zimbraMtaMaximalQueueLifetime 1d

zmmtactl restart

Thank you so much that did the trick i guess should be changed on the Wiki https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Tuning_Pos ... e_Settings

May I suggest : 1 day is a bad idea unless you work everyday to check the mailqueue.

well on my old postfix server i had 5 days and had to change to 1 day because what happened one time, an important email was to be sent and it was in the queue for 5 days because the client email server some odd reason blocked our IP so it could not Telnet the port 25 and boy did i get yelled at. so in 24 hours if the email was not sent it alerts the user
Thank you again
