MailWatch Release error

[Sachin Shirodkar]

Thanks Karl, 
 Yes I did notice that earlier, and that's how i fixed the ORDB, but during this period all my mails were blacklisted and were moved to the quarantine area, I need to release these messages, there are two ways of doing it (there could be more) , one is through the front-end Mailwatch which gives me this Release Error, and the second way is through the CLI using 'sendmail' which seems to be doing nothing.

This link could explain some of your problem. The ORDB is not longer
working and will falsly mark mail as spam to get your attention.
Remove the ORDB checks from your list i guess.
