Well I'm back at it again with that HUGE mx. I
had to drop this issue for a while to work on some other stuff but now I'm back
to it. Sorry for the delay.
Recap: this is the MX server that takes 200k+
messages per day and I'm having some trouble keeping milter-greylist
running. It tends to exit on me. This is a Slaris 2.9 (SPARC)
system. nofiles is set to 2048
I put the code into milter-greylist-1.5.10 to write
dumpfd to syslog. Then I grepped all the normal-ish stuff out of the log
leaving just the problems:
Anyone have any more ideas as to what to try?
$grep -i milter /var/log/mail.log | grep -v refused | grep -v "error state"
| grep -v "syntax error" | grep -vi "delayed" | grep -v "Greylisting" | grep -vi
"data read" | grep -vi "autowhitelisted" > /tmp/log1

Those temp greylist.db-XXY* files are left in the
directory after milter exits, they're always zero
bytes.
