Hi, I'm running cyrus-imapd-2.1.12 with sendmail 8.12.9. I have an issue where lmtpd seems to refuse connections.
This behaviour seems to occur when a large volume of mail is delivered to the box. I notice that there is an lmtpd process fo each message that is being delivered so if i send a few hundred emails i get a few hundred ltmpd processes. Is this normal ? I have specified FEATURE(local_lmtp) in sendmail.mc and have the following in my cyrus.conf file. lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0 The error in my maillog is: Apr 5 10:00:55 myserver sm-mta[58837]: h3500t9u058768: SYSERR(root): Could not connect to socket /var/imap/socket/lmtp: Connection refused by localhost Can anyone offer any advice ? Thanks.
