Hello, I am having the system with sendmail, mimedefang and spamassassin. Mimedefang is running with the below options.
-m 2 -x 80 -y 0 -U defang -b 300 -l MX_MINIMUM=2 MX_MAXIMUM=80 #MX_QUEUE_SIZE=10 In a day I am getting the below error multiple times. By looking at the md-mx-ctrl rawstats, all the 80 slaves are busy at that time. We are receiving around 500 e-mails in a minute. mimedefang-multiplexor[2500]: No free slaves mimedefang[2517]: t5O6odRs007105: Error from multiplexor: error: No free slaves How much slaves should be set for this workload? Would increasing the MX_QUEUE_SIZE help, how much I can increase? Any other suggestions to overcome this issue? I read that the e-mails sent during this time would be retried by the other MTA automatically, but I am seeing it as lost. Thanks, Muthu. _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID. You may ignore it.
