I haven't had so much luck. It ran fine for a few hours... and then,
without any error messages, sendmail now times out before responding to
MAIL FROM:, or eventually (10-15 seconds) replies with 471 Try again
later, and drops the connection. After disabling the milter, sendmail
accepts mail again. clamd is running, clamav-milter is running, load
averages are low (~1.00), and the system is otherwise responsive.
clamscan and clamdscan from the command line both work fine. Neither
/var/log/messages nor clamd.log indicate that anything might be wrong.
However, the system *does* now seem to need swap when the load
increases, which could be causing some thrashing, or maybe even
deadlock... <sigh> I'm going to try quadrupling the physical RAM in this
server and tweak a few settings (namely --max-children) to see if it
helps. It'd sure be nice if it failed a little more gracefully, though.
I'll post again with my success/failure.
Thank ${diety} for redundant MXs. :-)
