My last post was delayed 11 minutes, which is longer than it should be,
but not awful.
I did find that a spammer was abusing our Mailman instance's web
interface to send bounces via our gateways. I enabled
SUBSCRIBE_FORM_SECRET and that seems to have stopped the spammer for
now. I cleared the deferred mail queues and I'll keep an eye on it.
Gary's post a while back about the humongous queue made me wonder if
there's some misconfiguration where undeliverable messages are never
timed out, leading to an ever-growing queue. I think the typical
timeout is around four days. First-order, this should only cause a disk
space issue, but if the code scales poorly to large queues it could also
cause slowness.
At minimum, there should be some sort of out-of-band alerting to anomalous
conditions.
