As Dave Skoll mentioned explicitly. Don't use the embedded perl with perl 5.6, you need to use 5.8. This is what I use on a debian mostly stable box, our external mx relay. Kernel 2.4.23-grsec, with buffer overrurn,acl security enabled. Spamassassin 2.63 unstable Mimedefang 2.38 testing Sendmail 8.12.3 stable Perl 5.8 testing clamav .65 stable (from deb packages from official clam site, not debian site.)
Everything from stable/testing/unstable official debian repositories, via apt-pinning. (Contact me off list for info on this, as it it OT.) I have not encountered any memory timesout, although my situation is differnent. I only have 500 megs of memory. I'm using perl 5.8. It has been churning along for better then a month with no memory leakage. If it is the mimedefang process that is leaking memory, shouldn't restarting the process give back the leaked memory?
