Erm, could you point one out to me for an example? I'm hoping in
particular to implement booting a connection when it doesn't say anything
for several minutes. I do this in forkserver with SIG{ALRM}, for example.
I do see check_earlytalker, but that doesn't work AFAICT. When I telnet to
it, the only connection, it just sits there and never greets, and when I
type at it even after the timeout should have long passed, it complains
that I'm an earlytalker. When I make then break a second connection, then
the first connection greets and I can proceed with the smtp session.
