[Mimedefang] Strange tempfails

2007-01-12 Thread Cormack, Ken
Group, Below I have pasted log entries demonstrating some unexplainable tempfails I've been seeing in the last couple days. I've tallied about a dozen different senders to whom this has happened, but there seems to be one sending domain in particular, that is getting hit by this when they try to

Any hint ? Is it a mimedefang/MIME handling bug ? Or is it Apple Mail break some specification ? Please help! Thank you. Il giorno 10/gen/07, alle ore 13:25, Ing. Andrea Vettori ha scritto: Hi, I've a problem with mimedefang (version 2.58) with SpamAssassin 3 and f-secure antivirus on

I am running Mimedefang 2.58 with sendmail-8.12.1-2. I constatly have 500+ connections, but most of them are dropped by relaying denied and real time black lists. Out of these 500 connections, only about 10 of them actually make it through and continue on to Mimedefang. What does this error

I have cranked up the confMILTER_LOG_LEVEL to 17, hoping MIMEDefang would give me a little more data regarding the tempfails it is generating, but doing so doesn't yield anything especially useful (see additional log entries below). Since MIMEDefang's increased loglevel isnt very telling, I'll

Since MIMEDefang's increased loglevel isnt very telling, I'll try cranking sendmail's loglevel. If that doesn't do it, I'll md_syslog and md_graphdefang_log my filter like crazy, to at least see what function is bailing. :/ Using md_graphdefang_log sounds good. What's the timeout in the

I am not sure I understand how the milter is called. Most of these 500 connections don't get passed the blacklist checks I have included in the sendmail config. Only maybe 10 or so do. How can 10 milter connections cause this, or are the connections still made even though they are denied. -Rob

Not sure where I would make the changes from call() to select(), but I did recompile sendmail with in increased number of FD_SETSIZE. Chanaged from 256 to 512. Didn't really help. Right now there 3 servers in the pool, and I have to keep the connection limit to 325 or less. Even if each is
