Email stuck in Local Delivery Queue ...

**Daisyel** · 03-09-2008

I need urgent help on this topic...
We are not able to receive all email traffic inbound. I have gone through the Local Delivery Queue and i see quite a number of messages that are Stuck and are in Retry state. The very first thing that came in my mind was restarting the server, so i did that but it made no difference in my case. So i am here to know if there is anything that i can try out further so that i can start receiving email traffic inbound.

I doubt if your server has been set up properly. Anyways i have checked about your issue and i have come across below article. I guess it will help you in solving your problem.

Troubleshooting messages stuck in 'Messages awaiting directory lookup' queue

Just go through it and let me know if you find it helpful.

You can surely go through the above article but in case you don't get any help form it, then you can try below things:

Try restoring all services related to SBS 2003 server to default status
If you have any 3rd party anti-spam program installed then you can try disabling it for testing purpose
