sendmail probs with msgs larger than 100kb

sendmail probs with msgs larger than 100kb

2005-04-14       - By no glow

 Back
hi, i'm having some probs with sendmail-8.12.11-4.RHEL3.1 and perhaps
someone on this list could shed some light.

mails larger than 100kb or so are getting stuck at DATA and are
sitting idly in /var/spool/clientmqueue but smaller size emails are
being sent without probs. /var/log/maillog shows a bunch of timeouts
connecting to localhost but the daemon is definitely running on
localhost on port 25. iptables is completely down. i'm not exactly
sure what has changed with the introduction of the smmsp aside from
sendmail running setgid instead of setuid root but i never had any
probs with 8.11 or earlier with the default config. i've compiled 8.13
on this same box and have run into the same prob... ugh. in
desperation i upgraded to the 2.4.21-27.0.2 kernel and the
clientmqueue flushed upon rebooting but now they're starting to choke
again. any help would be sincerely appreciated.

from /var/log/maillog:
