I have had Wallace problems before and the most easy way out was removing
Wallace out of the picture. IIRC I have made a primitive python script to
reinject stuck emails to postfix for delivery, because if mails are in
wallace queue, they will never get delivered.

PS - adding kolab-users at kolab.org
