I’m having a weird problem where every day or so I’ll check "Mail Queue Manager" in WHM and a number of outbound emails from my phpBB forum and my site’s mail scripts will be stuck in the queue and won’t send. The only way that I’ve found to get them to send is to do a "graceful reboot" and then click deliver now on each of the emails once the server is back up. The mail server will then work fine for a few hours or a day before I check the queue and mails are stuck again.
I have a Linux VPS with HostV running cPanel and WHM.
Here are two of the mail send errors that are listed if I try to send an individual message without rebooting the server:

Per an earlier topic, I requested HostV fix my /etc/resolv.conf file as it didn’t have the correct information at one point.
The file currently says:

Thanks for any help you can give.
