If you have an even moderate load, --max-children is way too low. You may also want to check if you want -o and -l. Those values are the default at install, and they are aimed at the lowest common denominator, not a "real" mail server. As others have said, using --external may also help - it certainly has here. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | BOFH excuse #386: The Internet is | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | being scanned for viruses. | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
