Package: masqmail
Version: 0.2.20-1
Severity: normal
When recieving email (through pop3) with a large amount of addresses* in
the To field, masqmail consumes a very large amount of memory, eventually
resulting in the fetch process being killed, and this repeats until I tell
masqmail to stop fetching mail.
I can probably resolve this in my installation through ulimit (and use of
other mail clients to delete troublesome mail), but this might affect
other users too.
* Some of the students at my school seem to think it's a good idea to send
email to everybody in the mail server's address book, all at once, without
using BCC. The address book contains approximately 5000 names. The
administrators are not willing to implement restrictions on the number of
reciepients in an email. I can forward an example email, if it'll help.
