Mail best practices?
Without going to a dedicated list for something like this, I'm looking for a common sense approach. Sep 3 17:55:20 XXX sendmail[155]: r83Lse37000155: rejecting commands from outmail016.ash2.facebook.com [66.220.155.150] due to pre-greeting traffic Sep 3 17:55:22 XXX sendmail[156]: r83Lsg6N000156: rejecting commands from outmail015.ash2.facebook.com [66.220.155.149] due to pre-greeting traffic Isn't this sort of thing supposed to be frowned upon still? I am not trying to name & shame here, but I figured this is a pretty big/respectable email sender. Thoughts for balancing sensible network spam management with sensible best practices that affect lots of users? Thanks in advance, Deepak

Hi Lee, Smells like path MTU. The connection died at what is probably the first time in the SMTP session that the remote system tried to send you a large, probably 1500 byte packet: the beginning (message header) part of the data portion (the email message headers and body themselves, as opposed to the sender and recipient declarations). This is not the only candidate cause, but that's what my mind jumps to. Try adjusting the TCP Maximum Segment Size on your server. Turn it down to 1200 or so and see if the problem vanishes. If so, somebody's losing ICMP packets. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D. Herrin ................ herrin@dirtside.com bill@herrin.us 3005 Crane Dr. ......................
