Hello,

I upgraded one of my machines to OpenBSD 5.4-current containing the
64bits time_t change. And I noticed that exim was giving a 4XX error
to every mail because it was too busy. So I commented
smtp_load_reserve in the configuration file and it now works just
fine. So it seems this parameter is not interpreted correctly after
the time_t change.

I don't use Exim but I gave this a quick go, I can't repeat it here.
I'm on amd64 using the default /etc/exim/configure file with just the
line "smtp_load_reserve = 50" added.

Which arch?

Anything in exim's logs?

Any more info if you do debug logging in exim? (-d option to run in foreground).

Was your load actually above the value you had configured anyway?


Hi Stuart,

What I got in the logs was this:
2013-08-20 01:30:04 [15177] H=mail.arnor.org [2001:41d0:8:563d::2]:24142 I=[2001:6f8:1445::a1fa]:25 U=jf9fbw4kkqtvd008k1g5 temporarily rejected connection in "connect" ACL: Sorry, too busy. Try again later.

My smtp_load_reserve was set to 10 and the load average was about 1.2.

arch is amd64.
