But I can reproduce it. When I try to connect to the server using telnet (or swaks, an email sent test util), 1 out of 10 connects time out. I see the same error in the logs. I never had this with the "normal" qpsmtpd which used tcpserver.

Hi there,

We recently switched to qpsmtpd-prefork because we noticed we could
handle about twice as many connections.
Since we're using prefork, we get a lot of these "Could not print" erros
in the logs, looking like:
Could not print [220 smtp.domain.com ESMTP]

It's benign, due to a remote host that's disconnected already. A lot of zombies seem to connect and drop out immediately, especially if you DENY_DISCONNECT them it goes without saying. ISTR someone saying they had a change which as a side effect would suppress it for 0.32, but I'm still updating my own package so haven't tried it yet :)
