Hi, I'm using cyrus-imapd for quite long, but recently I encountered an issue with delivery: one of my mail servers is handling a significant load of e-mails, and quite often I'm seeing line like this in the maillog: Jan 17 12:35:26 gw0 sm-mta[78888]: v0H7ZML4078586: SYSERR(root): Could not connect to socket /var/imap/socket/lmtp: Connection refused by localhost This usually means that message bounced to MTA queue, where it can be hold for several minutes, sometimes dozens of minutes. I have the following directive in the cyrus.conf: SERVICES { ... lmtp cmd="lmtpd" listen="localhost:lmtp" prefork=4 maxchild=16 lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=4 maxchild=16 maxfds=2048 } I discovered that simply increasing this value can make the situation even worse. Is there some decent aproach to increase the performance of lmtp ? Thanks.
