Matt Simpson spake thusly on Wed, Jan 24, 2007 at 01:03:30PM -0500:
Somebody on this list gave me a script to use in my smtpd-run file, which would call qmail-smtpd, selectively invoking recordio depending on an environment variable. I could set the variable in my tcprules file to turn on recordio just for the problem connections, to log all the traffic. When I did that, I could see qmail-smtpd telling the NYTimes servers that it wasn't going to talk to them because they were sending bare LFs. Then I could use the same technique to invoke fixcrio just for those IPs to fix the problem.

Can that script be shared, Matt?  :)

I use fixcrio all the time in qmail-smtpd, and recordio only if I'm in trouble :)

But I use it in the run script like this :

exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 9000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l 0 -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" \
       -u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp \
       /usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -b -r blacklists.etc.etc \
       fixcrio \
       /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1

Isn't that enough to use it here, or is the mailserver really really busy, or couldn't you just put in a variable in the midst of this, just before fixcrio, or?

Sincerely
Max
