Hello, I have the following problem on one of my servers:
Sometimes, when getting some message via POP3, retrieval frozes and is interrupted only by timeout. This occurs independently on client used - even when i Telnet to server and issue POP3 commands by hand. When the offending message is deleted, everything is working fine. My guess is that this behaviour is caused by some kind of malformed message - like missing CRLF at end or maybe mismatched line endings in message. This usually occurs for spam messages and I currently do not have enough samples to be sure. I think that it may be some bug in Xmail - message is accepted as valid at input, but is not valid at output. I am not C programmer, so I cannot investigate the source. I would try to collect offending messages and find exact cause. Some messages have text, which does not end with CRLF, and such messages always fail. Some other failed messages, hovewer, seems to have line breaks at end. At this time I am unable to confirm if they are correct (ie not only CR or LF). -- Michal A.
