Timeout waiting for input from local during Draining Input

We had a lot of this after upgrading to the new sendmail that fixed the latest round of security flaws. It seems the new version takes a longer to do things (it runs considerably slower) and so needs some timeouts adjusted. Here are the ones we changed in the sendmail.cf ( < new > old ):


< O Timeout.quit=4m
< O Timeout.misc=3m
---
> #O Timeout.quit=2m
> #O Timeout.misc=2m
--
< O Timeout.control=3m
---
> #O Timeout.control=2m

I think the Timeout.quit is the important one. We now get very few drain errors.

HTH,
