Bad settings. Having REFUSE_LA higher than QUEUE_LA is a surefire way to kill your server. Most busy SMTP servers are I/O bound, and running in queue-only mode does nothing to reduce your I/O load. In fact, it *increases* it because the messages will need to be pulled from the queue at some point in the future. See "Sendmail Performance Tuning" by Nick Christenson. If you're running Linux, and those settings work well from you, your mail server is *not* busy! :-) Regards, David. _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
