Hi Everyone, I've been running mailman for sometime (2 years) plus with all working fine.
However, I have one list that is now getting very busy, both by volume of messages sent + size of each message + total number of subscribers. I now have a problem where if someone sends a 1MB message to the list that mailman will end up using almost all of the available bandwidth on my internet connection, making it difficult for other mail and web service to get out. I'm looking at implementing QOS on my internet router with a view to giving mailman traffic a low priority, but am also wondering if I can slow things down at the mailman end. I've looked at making adjustments to the following variables, but am not quite sure whether these would have the desired effect or what combination to use: SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 20 SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION = 0 MAX_DELIVERY_THREADS = 0 Could someone give me some suggestions? Thanks! James. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
