Archival server issue of mails not delivering

Issue

The archive server of Triburg was not working due to Certificate expiry on Zimbra

Once that is solved by creating New Certificate mails were stuck in the queue and not / very slow distribution happening

Findings

check the top process found Amavis on top

Amavis is not required for archival .

date was April 22 ,2012

changed the date to current date

Resolution

So to disable antivirus and antispam , we found the enabled services by

zmprov gs archive.triburg.co.in  zimbraServiceEnabled

Out put was

name archive.triburg.co.in
zimbraServiceEnabled: antivirus
zimbraServiceEnabled: antispam
zimbraServiceEnabled: logger
zimbraServiceEnabled: mailbox
zimbraServiceEnabled: memcached
zimbraServiceEnabled: mta
zimbraServiceEnabled: stats
zimbraServiceEnabled: snmp
zimbraServiceEnabled: ldap
zimbraServiceEnabled: spell

Disabled the amavis by disabling the antispam and antivirus services

zmprov ms archive.triburg.co.in  -zimbraServiceEnabled antispam
zmprov ms archive.triburg.co.in  -zimbraServiceEnabled antivirus

Restarted the zimbra by

zmcontrol stop 
zmcontrol start

Still there was lot of mails in the Queue so we had to requeue the mails by

as root

/opt/zimbra/postfix/sbin/postsuper -r ALL

5000+ mails dlivered in 1 hour
