I have sendmail dual-mata configured with amavisd-new as per recommendations, on the document http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/README.sendmail-dual sendmail-tx is running with 15m queue time. /usr/lib/sendmail -L sm-mta-tx -bd -q15m Queue mode is enabled. (Following 3 lines from above document) define(`confDELIVERY_MODE',`q')dnl Delivery mode: queue only (a must, dnl ... otherwise the advantage of this setup of being able to specify dnl ... the number of queue runners is lost) Mail getting delivered with delays, about 15min or more in some cases. Delay is not acceptable to us. delay which is not acceptable to us. Ex. If we send a mail to a local receipient, final delivery to local mail box would occur with a delay which is not acceptable. There are 2 options, 1. Can run the queue more frequently, Every 2mins. But this is not a healthy setup for sendmail. 2. Can stop the DELIVER_MODE to non-queue. Both has its own disadvantages. What is ideal is If the number of queue is lessthan a certain number deliver immediately, if the queues are maxed-out, queue the message. Is this type of setup not possible with sendmail? How are you, managing with the delays? Is there a special setting to consider, to minimize delivery delayes when used with queing? Any help/comments appreciated. - SamW |
