Milter-greylist

I am getting these constantly on my mailscanners

Oct 17 08:11:07 mailscannerx milter-greylist: peer 70.x.x.x queue 
overflow (1024 entries), discarding new entry

I x'd out the ips but you get the idea.  Everything will be going great 
and then all of a suddent I'll get these errors.  If I do a 'service 
miltergrey restart' it will start working again.  Why is the queue 
overflowing?  Is 1024 entries max for a 10 minute interval or 
something?  Can I increase this number?  My servers handle 300-500K 
messages daily so the greylist.db could be quite large, right now its 
20 megs.

It's the MX sync queue. For some reason, the MX sync cannot operate. Is
the TCP port 5252 blocked?

No filtering at all, all mail servers on the same switch.

Oct 17 09:17:01 mailscanner6 milter-greylist: Incoming MX sync 
connexion from 70.x.x.x
Oct 17 09:17:01 mailscanner6 milter-greylist: (mxsync): addr 
192.31.106.3 from <> rcpt <m.Jack@...>: autowhitelisted

<fielding@...>: autowhitelisted for 71:58:34

Then after a few minutes then all of a sudden I get these errors on 
all the scanners (not at the exact same time).

greylist.db = 21 megs

Try to increase the queue len in sync.h (SYNC_MAXQLEN)
