[Mimedefang] ERR timed out

[Karel.DeBruyne at ua.ac.be]

Hi,

I've got a lot (yesterday, 210) of these "ERR Filter timed out"
lines.

I isolated such a session from my maillog file
The load on my machine, is usually between 2 and 4 during the day.

I am using SpamAssassin 2.20 and McAfee anti-virussoftware.
I am only testing messages >50kB on Spam.

Can anyone explain to me what I should do ?

Thanks a lot,

Karel
