postfix-2.2.8_2,1
amavisd-new-2.3.3_1,1

I ran into problems last night with this message repeating for about 2
minutes in the maillog:

Feb  2 00:33:21 mx1 amavis[75326]: (75326-01) Exceeded storage quota
279252000 bytes by do_ascii; last chunk 51216 bytes
Feb  2 00:33:21 mx1 amavis[75326]: (75326-01) Decoding of p1163 (ASCII
English text) failed, leaving it unpacked: do_ascii: Exceeded storage quota
279252000 bytes by do_ascii; last chunk 51216 bytes

With this as the last amavis log entry:

Feb  2 00:35:41 mx1 amavis[75326]: (75326-01) Decoding of p4420 (ASCII
English text, with very long lines) failed, leaving it unpacked: do_ascii:
Exceeded storage quota 279252000 bytes by do_ascii; last chunk 51216 bytes

After that, amavisd stopped responding and messages went to the deferred
queue. I had to kill the process since "amavisd reload" would not work. Any
attempt to requeue the messages had the same result, although the first 90
messages went through without a problem. I assume that one of the 200
messages in the queue was causing the problem. 

Would any of following settings in the config file cause the problem? Also
what is a reasonable setting when Postfix is set to "message_size_limit =
30000000" and any ideas on why this stopped amavisd from responding?

$MAXLEVELS = 14;
$MAXFILES = 1500;
$MIN_EXPANSION_QUOTA =      100*1024;  # bytes
$MAX_EXPANSION_QUOTA = 300*1024*1024;  # bytes

Any help is appreciated.

Craig
