number of smtpds/postgrey

[Homer Wilson Smith [Permanent Link]]

    Got hit with a zillion incoming connections today,
most of which were empty, had to increase smtpds to
500 to deal, but postgrey barfed much above
250.

    Running FC3.  Is there an upper limit to smtpd
for postgrey's sake?  CAn postgrey be changed?

    Thanks in advance.  Homer
