A little more information gleaned from the logs here…

I'm only seeing the "failed to unlink" errors in paniclog on our gateways
which receive email from the outside world. It's only these that use
cutthrough at all, so it seems to be linked to that.

I can see from the logs that we were receiving messages using chunking into
all the gateways: those handling mail arriving from the outside world, and
also the ones handling locally created emails. I've not had any reports of
problematic deliveries from these yet, but they might not show as they'd
likely be going to Gmail which de-duplicates multiple copies of the same
message with the same Message-ID.

Is cutthrough still not ready for primetime use?
Any ideas why a remote server might be seeing an SMTP timeout instead of
the acknowlegement return code?

Cheers,
Mike B-)
