Hi,
I am having a few problems getting qmail-pop3d to time out. I was
wondering if anyone else has had similar problems and could help me out.
Once again, I imagine it is something I have set up wrongly in my qmail
or tcpserver configuration. I have tried setting the tcpserver timeout
to 180 seconds but this does not seem to make a difference in this case.
I have also modified my versions of saferead() and safewrite() both in
qmail-pop3d and qmail-popup to timeout after 300 seconds (Don't tell
Dan!), but again this doesnt seem to have any effect.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Regards,
