Hi,I had again problems with an huge mail and lmtpd. I believe this is caused by the sieve regex filtering of the huge mail.
The lmtp uses about twice the size of the email of mem and all the cpu-time it can get. Then postfix gets a time out, but the lmtpd still keeps running and does not finish its work. At the next delivery attemt from postfix a newlmtpd gets huge and takes as much cpu time it can get, while the first lmtp is still running and so on.
We run cyrus 2.3.8 and postfix 2.2.9 on a SLES10 system (pcre-6.4) I tried the rcpe-patch from fastmail to solve this problem, but delivering thesame mail to the patched cyrus still showed the same behavior. Has anyone else had this problem and had success with the patch from fastmail?
We used the same regex with procmail and had no problems like this.
I would like to help to solve this problem.
Regards
Michael Menge
