Paul, I believe you mentioned that in 2.0.6 and above, dbmail now opens a new connection to the database every second to make sure that it's alive rather than using the pgstatus function. (for PostgreSQL)
I was wondering what the reason for that change is? I've noticed that now if I look at a netstat output for TCP that I have nearly 200 connections to the database sitting in TIME_WAIT status. I'm assuming that these are keep alive connections. I realise that this shouldn't be a problem, but it seems like this could be accomplished better, but then I'm not the developer so I'm probably missing something. Just curious, Thanks. -- David A.
