Hi *, I hope this is not a FAQ. I was for a week or so in vacations, and in the meantime, my mailbox got really full. When I fetched my mail, there were more then 100 new mails. That is not so much, but the problem was that my system began to swap like the hell. All RAM and SWAP were in use. Response time was very very low. I looked with "top" what was going on. CPU usage was at about 60%, but memory usage zu 110%. And there was at least 30 instances of SA in memory, each one between 2 and 8 Mb Ram. So there was too many SA in use.
I'm using exim. I don't know if the problem is with SA (which allows so many instances), or a MTA problem (which wants to send so many e-mails localy at once, causing the problem). What should I do?
