Monitoring my system it looks like the following: Messages are in queue but for some reason XMail could not delivery those messages. So, when some internal routine is triggered (queue retries, etc) a "smtp avalanche" is causing the problem.
I don't know exactly, just thoughts.

It was like an avalanche. About a hundred of mails per second as a consequence. Bu now I know that XMail is really stable server :) and one hundred = small mails per second is OK for XMail.

Santos Sendt: 26. september 2003 17:13 Til: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Emne: [xmail] Outbound Filter Scripts Viktighet: H=F8y We are a medium ISP hosting +- 1200 domains and +- 12000 accounts using XMail Win32. I'm using the following parameters: -Mr 24 -PX 512 -Sl -SX 256 -Sr 1000 -Qn 256 -Qr 16 -CX 64 -Ln 256 Here we have inbound filters (av, spam, etc) and outbound filters that = just verify if the from account really exists (very small script). The problem is: sometimes hundreds of outbound scripts are started at = the same time. If I change SX from 256 to 128 (for example) users tell us that MUA = returns: Server is too busy, try again later... Is there a way to limit these situation ? ps: the problem above doesn't happens with inbound filters Thank you Edinilson ---------------------------------------------- ATINET-Professional Web Hosting Tel Voz: (0xx11) 4412-0876 http://www.atinet.com.br - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
