They're all temporary, for scanning purposes. Once the scanning is done,
they all are deleted.

yes. the idea is to use my backup server to run the script and send a large

thanks for the info. the script you sent works
the server processes roughly around 8 emails per day during week days and
around 80 percent of it comes during around 12 hours. So during peak hours it
is around 8000 emails per hour.

Rajesh,
If you've got the script working you can add a line above the call to
'return_limits': echo "Count: $1 (`pgrep $1 | wc -l`)"
This line will give you the number of the argument's ($1) processes as
well as the rest of the output.
#!/bin/bash
if [ "$#" -ne "1" ]; then
echo ""
Rajesh,
It has something to do with #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh.
At top of script, when I use #!/bin/sh I get the same error you do, but
when I use #!/bin/bash script works fine.

I sent myself a large file so that I could examine simscan with the
below script (limits.sh). Here's the output:

Here's a section of code in simscan.c that controls the number of processes.
#ifdef HAS_ULIMIT_NPROC
/* Set ulimits to prevent hangs if it forks too many processes */

limits.rlim_cur = 1024;

The RLIMIT is set to 1024.

I'm not sure what's going on here. Is this a relatively new phenomenon?
I wonder if it's a memory, or even a disk speed, issue since it only
happens at peak hours?
I think I'll appy Johannes Weberhofer's patch and put it out there for
you...and cross or fingers.

i have still not being able to resolve the qq soft reject error.
these are my findings
1) the errors i see are "error forking qmail-queue" and "ripmime error" which
causes the qq soft reject.
2) the max concurrent connections in the logs is around 35.
3) These errors come up
thank for sharing your experience remo,
so would the following be correct ?
chmod 2750 simscan
chown clamav.clamav simscan
do i need to stop qmail while applying this ?

about 80 percent of them are routed via the sophos antispam filter and then
passed on to the mailserver with spamassassin/clam disabled by adding the ip of

them to our mail server (qmailtoaster, dovecot, spamassassin, clam)
