G'Day All,
I have a question about the speed of my qmail server.
I look after 2 mail servers, 1 for the company and i help an isp run
the other. The company one has 1.03 qmail plain stock standard
and when you pop in and smtp in it reacts almost instantly. Works
fine.
However we are not finding the same thing on the isp mail server.
There are about 20 virtual domains and poping in and smtp in is
starting to get slower and slower and even sometime time out.
Versions are :
qmail 1.03
vpopmail 3.4.11-1.released
qmailadmin 0.26e
Each domain has their own ip which reverse resolves to their own
mail.domain.com
We house all dns entries for their domains and reverses.
What we get is that sometimes a customer of the virtual domain
will get a timeout while trying to check his email via pop3. We
have increased the timeouts on some of the pc's but really was
wondering is it because we are scaling more and more virtual
domains ? What should i be looking for ? Is it perhaps a known
bug and its fixed in a newer version ? PC is running at load
average of 0.00 and 98.6% idle. Its a P3 800 or something with
256Mb of memory....
Thanks in Advance
Nathan
