Re: [spamdyke-users] spamdyke idle timeout problem

Hi Sam,

 The last timeout bug (that I know of) was fixed in 3.1.8. I haven't
 received any reports of timeout problems in 4.0 (yet). If you can
 trigger this problem with 4.0, please try to capture a full log and
 let's arrange some way to get it to me (my server won't accept 50 MB
 emails, sorry).

The problem occured with spamdyke 4.0.3, I'm currently running 4.0.4.

It happened when sending to a specific target mail server, but this 
should be irrelevant because the mail gets accepted into the qmail-queue 
first, so timeouts cannot be triggered by a destination mailserver, right?

I'll check if I can arrange a test with full-log enabled during the next 
few days, when it doesn't hurt productive use of the mta and will report 
back once I got the data.

 Hello,

 I'd like to ask about your opinion on a good value for idle-timeout-secs
 – I've started with a value of 60 seconds, which strangely caused
 TIMEOUTs during mail delivery of large mails (over 10MB) from clinet
 MTAs with SMTP AUTH (specifically the mail path was: Client MS Exchange
 (DSL upstream 512 kbps) -  Spamdyke SMTP AUTH -  qmail -  target MTA).

 I have now raised the idle timeout value to 180 secs, which seems to fix
 the problem for now, but I wonder what happens with eg. 50 or 100 MB mails.

 The strange thing is that the idle and not the connection timeout got
 triggered, because supposedly there is never such a long period of no
 traffic during sending a large mail.

 What version are you running? There was a bug in most 3.x versions that
 would timeout on large emails when there was no interruption. Check the
 documentation's change log to verify which version it was fixed in. There
 haven't been any reports of this problem with 4.x TTBOMK. Of course, Sam
 would know for sure.
