Hi Mark, hello list Sorry, to come back to you all a little bit late. I just let amavis running and checked frequently the logs. >> The first correct GTUBE Mail has the same ID (not sub-id) like the first >> incorrect mail >> > The log_id is just a process id (pid), followed by a sequential task number, > which increments with each new mail message received from MTA by this > child process. > > Eventually (on reaching $max_requests), a child process is retired > and substituted by a new one - with a fresh PID and starting to count > tasks from one again. > > You hit the nail mark: I had NO $max_requests in my log-file and amavis used the value 5 as default. I added the line $max_requests = 10; and nothing changes except the sequential task numbers have risen to -10 in maximum. But just the two 'servers' generate a log entry with child - number 1.

Each message is tagged correctly with the "Blocked SPAM" entry in the log file. The question is now why only the the first child process generates a full "main log entry"? I guess the setting "max_requests = 1;" is not a good idea due to performance reasons? Ok, system is not under heavy load and has a core7/8GB RAM but nevertheless I'd prefer to solve the issue not with this dirty "workaround" ;) Thank you again and greetings from Switzerland Felix ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ AMaViS-user mailing list AMaViS-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/amavis-user AMaViS-FAQ:http://www.amavis.org/amavis-faq.php3 AMaViS-HowTos:http://www.amavis.org/howto/
