Quoting Thomas T. Veldhouse (veldy at veldy.net): > Is the tclug-list at mn-linux.org list using sendmail still? I noticed that > mails are being sent to the list in nearly real-time now. Is this because > of the changes mad to the sendmail configuration or is it using postfix now > :) ? Changes to sendmail. I thought for sure I posted the changes. :-( Here they are again. First make sure you DO NOT have FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX'), that was the single most important factor. See your README.cf for what this does. Here are my tweaks for timeouts: define(`confTO_INITIAL', `2m')dnl define(`confTO_CONNECT', `2m')dnl define(`confTO_ICONNECT', `2m')dnl define(`confTO_HELO', `2m')dnl define(`confTO_RCPT', `2m')dnl define(`confTO_QUEUERETURN', `1h')dnl define(`confTO_QUEUEWARN', `30m')dnl To REALLY get a performance boast I enabled 20 queues: define(QUEUE_DIR,`/var/spool/mqueue/q*') See sendmail.net for a great article on this. Here is my mm_cfg.py # Ceiling on the number of recipients that can be specified in a single SMTP # transaction. Set to 0 to submit the entire recipient list in one # transaction. Only used with the SMTPDirect DELIVERY_MODULE. SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 50 # Two other qrunner resource management variables. The first controls the # maximum lifetime of any single qrunner process, and the second controls the # maximum number of messages a single qrunner process will, er, process. # Exceeding either limit causes qrunner to exit, reclaiming system resources # and deleting the lock. Other qrunners will then process the remaining # messages. Set either to None to inhibit this resource check. QRUNNER_PROCESS_LIFETIME = minutes(30) QRUNNER_MAX_MESSAGES = 300 -- Bob Tanner <tanner at real-time.com> | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.mn-linux.org | Fax : (952)943-8500 Key fingerprint = 6C E9 51 4F D5 3E 4C 66 62 A9 10 E5 35 85 39 D9
