milter-greylist 1.4 : peer x.x.x.x queue overflow

2004-11-09 by milter@free.fr

Hi,

Still running Milter-greylist 1.4 (with just a few lines
commented to avoid too much syslog logging) in -T mode.
Works great except I'm seeing thousands of lines such as :

Nov  9 15:11:46 mail milter-greylist: peer x.x.x.x queue overflow (-1 entries),
discarding new entry
Nov  9 15:12:00 mail milter-greylist: peer x.x.x.x queue overflow (-1 entries),
discarding new entry
Nov  9 15:12:06 mail milter-greylist: peer x.x.x.x queue overflow (-1 entries),
discarding new entry

Apparently it comes from sync.c :
    790         if (peer->p_qlen >= SYNC_MAXQLEN) {
    791                 syslog(LOG_ERR, "peer %s queue overflow (%d entries), "
    792                     "discarding new entry", peer->p_name, peer->p_qlen);

It seems that most of the time syncing despite of these error messages.
A kind of warning ?

I recall some posts about a new stable version ...
Could it be possible to have some release candidate versions ?


PS : I will try to propose an initscript for SUSE (or update the existing
one to support both SUSE/RH/Mandrake).


PS2 : at a time I had a problem with the milter-greylist.db file.
There was an odd address <Q[5-]@...> causing fatal parsing errors
on restart. Removing this line solved the pb.
Regards,

SL/
