lmtpd timeout

[Gregor Bruhin]

Hi,

I just get a lot of sendmail logs:
timeout waiting for input from [myserverip] during client greeting

My mails often are delivered, but sometimes a second trial is needed...
I increased the preforked lmtp daemons on myserver and it seemed to
help, but could someone tell me a bit more about this, is it tuneable ?

I have frontend servers with the mtas, and cyrus is running on an other
server, mails are transmitted via lmtp...


My sendmail config looks like this:
