Messages in mail queue

Pagemakers

Silver Pleskian
There are a few messages in the mail queue when viewed from the CP.

They have been there for a day or so. How long should they stay there and should they auto-delete?
 
Should after 5 days, if undelivered be deleted automatically.
 
After updating to V8 I found tons of mail in my queue that were more than 5 days old. I cleared the queue and now since updating there are none in the queue they are all making their journey out. :D

So I'd say anything older than 4 days - kill it. See what happens next.
 
Plesk just replied:

'By default they are stored 7 days.. You can specify other period in /var/qmail/control/queuelifetime file, there should be number of seconds. Then restart qmail.'
 
Thanks for the info, good to know.

After upgrading to v8 I had major email issues. But once resolved and cleared the queue, mine had remained empty to date. Been checking daily thus far and good to go still.
