Russell Nelson was overheard saying:
: It modifies various programs to use hashed todo and intd directories.
: This allows you to inject mail faster than qmail-send can deal with
: it.  Otherwise, you end up with really big directories with more than
: 1,000 files.  Once that happens, the kernel spends more and more time
: locked reading/writing those directories.  Also, if you're injecting
: 100,000 messages all at once, make your conf-split bigger -- more like
: 231 than the default 23.

I downloaded this patch because it seems to be the kind of thing I'm looking
for.  Does anyone know how to modify queue-fix to deal with this kind of 
queue directory?  It looks like the intd and todo directories changed but I'm
not sure in what manner.

Thanks

It works now, thank you very much! The following solutions solve the
problems:


a) # cat /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-ppp-mark
   mark

or

b) # cat /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-ppp-mark
   &[EMAIL PROTECTED]

or

c) ~/.fetchmailrc with "smtpaddress localhost":
The /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-ppp-mark file is not necessary - right?
Here mark's  .fetchmailrc:

-----
poll unidui.uni-duisburg.de proto pop3
user mweinem with password secret is mark here
forcecr 
smtpaddress pandora.plagegeister.de
-----


Ciao
        Mark




Anybody else notice that koobera's /pub/software is empty??
ftp://ftp.qmail.org/pub/koobera.math.uic.edu still has the expected
files, however.

Doesn't he put everything in /www/software?

Maybe he does *now*, but I've always been looking in /pub/software.
The advantage of distributing it from /www/software is that Dan
doesn't have to publish ftp://koobera.math.uic.edu/pub/software/qmail-1.03.
Instead, he can say http://pobox.com/~djb/software/qmail-1.03.
