hi

the value specified in the pop3/run file for soft limit

i am a bit confused as to what this means

is per pop3 session or for the entire pop3 service.

exec /usr/bin/softlimit -m 25000000 \
/usr/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l0 -c 300 0 110 \

thanks

My understanding is that softlimit applies per connection, as the qmail-pop3d program does not run as a service. Note, this is a ceiling or safety net, and each connection may fall well short of using this much ram.

Dovecot's pop3 on the other hand is a service/daemon, but that doesn't use softlimit or tcpserver (in case you happen to be using dovecot).
