[falko]

Do you see any Postfix errors in the mail log (the excerpt you posted doesn't contain any errors)?

[beenfishing]

There are no errors in the mail log and the queue is now empty.

Just want to know why my mail log is full of connections from localhost, there is only 1 or 2 mails per day coming through this server at the moment and it's hard to find them in the log when it's full of connections form localhost.

This is ISPConfig's Monitor module which checks if SMTP/POP3/IMAP daemons are up and running.
