Hey guys just wanted to bounce this off the list and see if anybody else
has seen this issue or know of a fix.  We run 4 qpsmtpd servers all load
balanced using ultra monkey, linux ha basically, and lately I am getting
alot of bounces due to things such as:

>>> HELO imo-m27.mx.aol.com
<<< 500 Unrecognized command
>>> QUIT
<<< 500 Unrecognized command

>>> HELO imo-m14.mx.aol.com
<<< 503 MAIL FIRST

< mail33-red-R.bigfish.com #5.0.0 X-Postfix, host
mx.highspd.net[208.62.90.253] refused to talk to me: 503 MAIL first>


These are just a few examples, but I am getting probably 5 complaints a
day about bounces with the same messages.  Anybody have a clue about what
is going on?

On a side note, is it normal to only be able to get 20-25 connections per
machine?  Our machines are spec'd as follows:
P4 3.0Ghz, 1GB Ram, 40GB ATA 133
Running: FC 2, SpamAssassin 3.0, ClamAV 0.80, qpsmtpd 0.29
SA is running with 13 .cf files including bigevil.

At 25 connections we starting hitting a load of 1.5 - 2.0.  If that's
normal it's cool, if not what might I be doing wrong?

Thanks in advance everybody.
