[Mimedefang] Milter: data, reject=451 4.7.1 Please try again later

[Lu]

David,
Though I am using the latest spamassassin, the load seems to be the
issue.

I changed:
if (-s "./INPUTMSG" < 256*1024)

to:
if (-s "./INPUTMSG" < 100*1024)

and it seems to work.

I have another question but on a slightly different topic so I will post
a separate e-mail

Thanks.
