Usually, one's comprehension of a second language is better than one's expression in that language. So, it isn't uncommon for people to conduct conversations like this. This bilingual thread has worked well so far - I've understood the questions but could not possibly have composed a reply in French. I've seen other cases on this list where the English used has been incomprehensible to me. >> Merci pour votre aide mais j'utilise la version de exim qui est >> préinstallé avec le système Redhat Entreprise 5 et j'ai les >> paramètres énumérés et ils sont ainsi configurés. >> >> smtp_ratelimit_mail = 2,0.5s,1.5125,4m >> smtp_ratelimit_rcpt = 5,0.5s,1.025,4m >> >> Je voudrais une compréhension plus large de ces valeurs. > > > What's the problem with searching a bit? > Found in 2 second searching with: > http://www.google.com/search?q=smtp_ratelimit_mail > " > smtp_ratelimit_mail = 2,0.5s,1.05,4m > smtp_ratelimit_rcpt = 4,0.25s,1.015,4m > > The first setting specifies delays that are > applied to MAIL commands after two messages > have been received over a single connection. > The initial delay is 0.5 seconds, increasing > by a factor of 1.05 each time. > The second setting applies delays to > RCPT commands when more than four occur > in a single message. > " > > Nothing more clear...
