From FAQ: How do I run qmail-smtpd under tcpserver? inetd is barfing at high loads, cutting off service for ten-minute stretches. I'd also like better connection logging.

Answer: Install ucspi-tcp. Remove the smtp line from /etc/inetd.conf, and put the two lines

     tcpserver -v -u 7770 -g 2108 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \
     2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &
into your system boot scripts; replace 7770 with your qmaild uid, and replace 2108 with your nofiles gid. Don't forget the &. The change will take effect at your next reboot.

By default, tcpserver allows at most 40 simultaneous qmail-smtpd processes. To raise this limit to 400, use tcpserver -c 400.

Subject: Problem with Qmail Queueing

I’ve got a quick problem and I hope that someone can help me with this.  In the past month my company has switched from using Sendmail with linuxconf and virtualpop3 to using qmail with vpoppasswd.  Everything converted great and I have a couple of bash scripts and php scripts that make this conversion easy and fast if anyone is interested.  The problem I am having is in the queuing.  I cannot seem to get qmail-send to run more than 20 qmail-remotes at any one time.  I have changed /var/qmail/control/concurrencyremote to 90 and it still stops at 20.  I’ve searched through the archives and done as much research as possible, but still can’t find anyway around this.  I also set /var/qmail/control/queuelifetime to 345600, which should reflect about 4 days, however mail is still sticking around in the queue for a week.  Anyone have any suggestions or otherwise on this?

 

Thanks,
