This is a sendmail issue. As I understand it (and someone will no doubt gleefully shout at me if I am wrong), the problem is that whilst the number of file descriptors available per process is configurable on some operating systems (you didn't state which you are using), sendmail uses hard coded Posix values. Look up FD_SETSIZE in /usr/include and set you number of per process file descriptors to that, restart the milter and then see what happens, on mine (Linux - Fedora Core 1) it is 1024. Please report back to here since it will be useful to include in the documentation. -Nigel -- Nigel Horne. Arranger, Composer, Typesetter. NJH Music, Barnsley, UK.
