If you've been keeping with my drama my spamassassin/mimedefang box is having trouble processing 40K+ messages a day. In the evening/early morning we are fine *but* when our 10 meg pipeline gets about 50% my box starts to choke. I've added a local caching dns and that helped a little.
Can someone tell me about this milter_data(mimedefang):EOM ACK/NAK timeout. I haven't found many references to the issue and no explaining it. On a seperate note, someone suggested lowering the timeouts for the rbl lookups to 5 seconds rather then default 30, I'm going to see if I can find where to set that. Also, (yes I know this is wrong but I'm not allow to change our setup) my spamassassin box is the third hop in our mail servers. I'm wondering if my box is checking againest the rbl's each time it gets an email. Is there away to set my trusted servers so that part is skipped? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
