http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtp_destination_concurrency_limit smtp_destination_concurrency_limit is per recipient. So it will reduce the number of connections when sending to gmail and yahoo but not much else. >From the same URL the default_process_limit is the number of processes that the master process spawns, this will affect the DEFAULT for inbound connections but not much else. Also note that it can be over-ridden by master.cf and in the case of smtpd it probably is. > BTW: The server is in the Amazon EC2 cloud but I don't think it > matters.
