I agree, assuming that he is talking about a small number of sending processes. If, on the other hand, he is talking about a small number of receiving processes, then it is very well possible that a sending process times out while it is waiting for a receiving process to become available. I'm not sure that he is using Postfix terminology correctly. Wietse
