Hello,
Today, I observed smtpd that was in endless loop and then broken.

I hope the above information is helpful to fix the problem.

Is this phenomenon specific to me?
No, it isn't:
term% ps|grep Broken
none 917 2:08 42:50 264K Broken smtpd
impressive!
i don't see this problem, but i have implemented
some fairly agressive spam control. perhaps this
shows up after i tend to hang up.
(it is possible to use nupas smtpd with regular old
upas.)
would anyone mind sending me a full backtrace?
