[Mimedefang] "Please try again later"

[Mack]

It may be worth you checking your milter code for timeing issues, as
optimising the milter can make big differences

if you import Time Hi-Res

use Time::HiRes qw( usleep ualarm gettimeofday tv_interval );

and then at the start of each sub within the filter do

sub filter_xxx ($) {
my $t0 = [gettimeofday];

........
Your Code
and then at the end of the sub
.......

my $elapsed = tv_interval ( $t0, [gettimeofday]);
md_syslog('warning',"TC : filter_xxx  : $elapsed");
}

you will be able to get an idea if things are taking a little long, and thus
slowing performance down dramtically and enabling you to make changes to
your mimedefang-filter accordingly

This morning, I'm putting mimedefang into production, just for virus
and attachment checks.  I'm seeing a lot of "Please try again later"
responses from mimedefang.  The problem is, this same sever is used by
my local users (not just remote MTAs), and we don't want them getting
that type of response.

What do I need to adjust to make this happen less?  (sendmail's load
threshold is much higher than the load I'm seeing on teh system, so I
don't think it's that)

Specifically, I wouldn't mind having it do this more for remote senders
and less for local senders.  I just don't want local senders to see
this much (if at all).


thanks
