A lot of mails in "queued messages"

[paulus80]

Hello, i´m starting to use postal and i think that i´m doing someting incorrectly.

I have installed postal using the docker and i have started all correctly. I have created my first mailing campaigns using MailWizz. All seems works fine, but i looking in the "Messages - Outgoing Messages" i have this:

Status:sent - 17,635 messages
Status Held - 42 messages
Status Pending - 83,460 messages
Status softfail - 9,375 messages
Status hardfail - 23.200 messages
Status bounced - 0 messages

Al in the top of the page i have this

• 93688 queued messages

I don´t know how interpretate it. What includes exactly the "queued messages" area? I suppose that should be this:

queued messages = Pending + Softfail

Is this correct?

My other question is, why i have all this messages as pending? What must i do for process all this messages?

I have downloaded the database and i have 83.405 messages witho "0" attemps. It seems that Postal hasn´t tryed to send all this messages.

Thanks for your help.

It is likely that you need to scale up the amount of workers as you have a lot of messages to deal with, have a look at #1461 (reply in thread)

Hi, i scalled it when i louched the campaigns, and doing it i obtained a better sender speed.

I´ll go to test one thing now. I´ll drop the table "queued_messages", and i´ll send the same campaing increasing the workers since the first moment. I´ll post here the results when finish it.

You would have to look at the messages to see why they failed and needed retrying.
