Went to look for the pw in /etc/EFA-Conf and found INTERFACE:eth0 But I am using eth1. I get this error when booting. Could this be related EFA eth0 error.PNG I believe this happened after I moved or copied the VM, not sure which. I simply assigned IP info to eth1 when it happened and everything was...

Shawn,

Maximum Processing Attempts is set to 0

If I remove mail does cpu to to 0. Yes. It drops in the evenings to a load of .3 or so. I also have a 2nd EFA, clone of this VM, that runs as 2nd MX and processed only 400 messages today, load is 0, 0, 0. Do we get a lot of non English? I would say a few but not a lot. Probably a relatively small pe...

I think part of my confusion at the high load is that we were previously using a similar box, Postfix, SA, Clam, and it processed the same load on 8 year old hardware with only a fraction of the load. Ran single CPU with 2 or 4 cores and 4gb of ram, averaged around 15% cpu and rarely used 2gb with 2...

Thanks the manual is very helpful. I see info about Max Child setting on page 125 but nothing on 141.

Looks like I have some reading to do...


when I set Max Children to 10, the web interface in EFA regular reports 16+ during load.

VM is vhd from EFA. Morning business is starting here so this is normal/light load EFA1 Top1A.PNG Host machine has nothing else significant running. Dell c6100, 2x Xeon L5520( 16 Cores ) 48 Gb ram. The SAN and disk array that the VM sits on runs a number of other VMs so the storage is not idea for t...

Is the VM running out of Memory and swapping - I don't think so. I started with 2 Gb Ram and have been slowly incrementing by 2GB so now I am up to 8 Gb. So far whatever I give it seems to use. However when the slowness occurred several days ago I bumped ram from 6 to 8 Gb and it made no difference....

After reading the forum I saw recommendations for running MailScanner Threads per Core anywhere from 1:1 to 4:1. When i tried to add more than 10 from EFA-Configure it of course would not let me so I was just wondering. Then I saw on the MailScanner site they said 5:1 and was really getting confused...

Yes I am logged in.

Thanks for the tip on using the Google Search. I have use the Advanced Search but just thought the forum Search would be more effective that Google. I will use Google in the future.

I am curious how EFA controls MailScanner Max Children According to the MailScanner site http://www.mailscanner.info/gettingthebest.html MailScanner Leave most things set at defaults. Max Children = 4 x number of CPU cores. Each 5 children require 1GB RAM. But it seems EFA Sets a limit of 10, or the...

Hello, I am wondering if there is something amiss with my EFA box or this is normal. I have been adjusting hardware and setting trying to improve speed/performance. Not in accuracy but rather how many messages EFA can handle per min/hr. We processed 23588 messages yesterday total. Yesterday morning ...

We are getting the same error.

MailScanner shows pass but SA is Red.

SA Lint show one orange:
"dbg: rules: __HAS_LIST_ID merged duplicates: __ML2" with "1.1xxx" seconds

"total" with "5.3xxxx"

This seems to me like a long time for SA to process a message?

I am a little embarrassed to ask, I feel I am missing something really obvious. :doh: Most of my forum searches are failing. I try to look for answers before I post but in this case I am not coming up with much since I frequently run into a reply that my search was too common. Yet when I try to narr...

Sorry to bring open and old thread but I have problem I dont see a solution for here. I want to create my relay_recipients from Exchange LDAP. When I run the LDAP install it gives an error. perl -MCPAN -e shell install Net::LDAP . . . . Tests succeeded but one dependency not OK (GSSAPI) MARSCHAP/per...

Congrats on the publicity!

And GREAT Project!!!!

Todd

We would be interested in the same.

I am still VERY new to EFA but this I have setup SQLGrey with a shared MySQL DB so the greylisting info is shared between boxes.

Todd

Hello Everyone,

Looking forward to digging in. Very nice appliance so far!

Got the main.cf updated and the transport and relay_recipients are importing fine. Created a cron and users are updating from the mail server every 30 min.

Thanks!

Todd

I am new to EFA and getting used to the menus and functionality. I have an older box that does scanning with Postfix, SA, Clam so I have a basic familiarity those and I have some scripts setup to import users and domains from our mail server. I would like to do the same with EFA but don't want to br...
