If you dig back through the archives there mention (maybe even by me - 
if not, email me off-list) of adding an iptables rule to throttle storms 
like this. On production servers I drop IPs that attempt to connect more 
than 10 times in a 60 second period, and I reset that after 6 hours.
Maybe adjuts your blacklists some. Depending on your load you may be 
exceeding the number of "free" lookups allowed by spamhaus and you may 
need to look into their commercial feed.

Re: [qmailtoaster] SMTP issues

2009-07-13 Thread Eric Shubert
It sounds to me as though your system was bombarded with more than it 
could handle.


Tuning is somewhat of a fine art.

concurrencyincoming should probably be throttled back a bit. At what 
point was your system choking?


memory is limited by your softlimit setting.

I'm not aware of any sort of cpu constraint.

Keep in mind, your system never really failed. Even the messages that 
timed out should have been resent by the sending server.


The better your spamdyke configuration is at blocking spam, the easier 
the rest of your system will breathe. If you post your spamdyke.conf 
we'll have a look at it.

Can you turn on spamdyke detailed logging and see what the last message

Port 25 still takes 30 seconds to answer even after turning my delay

CPU load is .15

I looked in smtp log and when I telnet to port 25 I get the following
immediately

But it still takes 30 seconds for the greeting to come up.  Nothing that
it's waiting for etc...

Any help?

I put qmail back in.  I did have my timeout set way to low.  I bumped it

660, it was 30.  That would have definitely caused no mail to come through

I would seriously consider installing spamdyke if you haven't already.

I agree, I think the problem was spamdyke was not able to hand off the email 
to the qmail smtp service.  It was timing out.


The only way I could get any emails in was to remove spamdyke out of the 
equation.

That doesn't mean that removing spamdyke is a solution.
I've yet to see performance degrade due to spamdyke, and I've seen 
impressive improvements due to its use.


Whatever the problem you have ends up being, I'm pretty sure that it's not 
spamdyke. Of course some configurations of spamdyke might impair 
performance, like if you're trying to use an RBL that's not responsive. 
That's not a fault of spamdyke.

I would seriously consider installing spamdyke if you haven't already. 
This will lessen the load even more.

That doesn't mean that removing spamdyke is a solution.
I've yet to see performance degrade due to spamdyke, and I've seen 
impressive improvements due to its use.


Whatever the problem you have ends up being, I'm pretty sure that it's 
not spamdyke. Of course some configurations of spamdyke might impair 
performance, like if you're trying to use an RBL that's not responsive. 
That's not a fault of spamdyke.

This was the spamdyke error in the log, it was timing out sending it to 
qmail.
