It'd be hard to decide without knowing the load on the system, your
link latency, DNS lookup speed, etc... too many factor can affect this
to make a wild judjement.

Yup, this is where you should start looking. Assuming your syslogd is
setup correctly you should see in one of your log files messages like
Jul 9 11:33:45 core mimedefang[8743]: Error from multiplexor: ERR Filter timed out - check filter rules or system load
Jul 9 11:33:45 core sm-mta[8741]: h69AVimm008741: Milter: data, reject=451 4.7.1 Please try again later

Oh yes, thanks, this might be the reason and I hadn't thought about this.
Acutally I don't have F=T, and this id what I'd like.
I have:
T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m
These seems to me pretty high, pretty conservative timeouts: can they be too short?
Ok, I use spamassassin, but only for messages smaller than 100kB, which shouldn't take so long on a 400MHz Pentium II.
Am I wrong?
Can I see from any log whether a timeout was exceeded?
bye & Thanks
