• Please be aware: Kaspersky Anti-Virus has been deprecated
    With the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, "Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers" will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. We recommend that you migrate to Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.
  • We’re working on enhancing the Monitoring feature in Plesk, and we could really use your expertise! If you’re open to sharing your experiences with server and website monitoring or providing feedback, we’d love to have a one-hour online meeting with you.

There is nothing in the maillog above that would explain why is your outgoing mail stuck.

How many messages are in the queue at the moment? Is such a number of messages normal for your server? Is the number rising, and if it is, at a normal rate or..?

Did you try restarting postfix? Any errors regarding postfix in the logs?

Have any changes been made to the server's configuration recently?
