It requires a -9 to kill the processes.
I cranked up logging to see if I could get a clue what it's doing. I have a hook_rcpt handler that ends with: $self->log(LOGNOTICE, "$email doesn't exist"); return Qpsmtpd::DSN->no_such_user("No such user as $email"); and what I find in the logs looks like this: 2007-08-31 10:23:17.849806500 18633 trinsixldap plugin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't exist 2007-08-31 10:23:17.849807500 18633 Plugin trinsixldap, hook rcpt returned DENY, No such user as [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#5.1.1) 2007-08-31 10:23:17.849809500 18633 running plugin (deny): tarpit 2007-08-31 10:23:17.849810500 18633 trying to get config for tarpit_whitelist 2007-08-31 10:23:17.849865500 18633 Plugin tarpit, hook deny returned DECLINED, 2007-08-31 10:23:17.849867500 18633 550 No such user as [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#5.1.1) and then it hangs forever and requires a -9. Am I doing the wrong thing, is this a bug, or is there something odd about my system?
