talking of which ......
We use inetd to start smtp listeners, so (I believe) exim's "max conns"
facilities are not available.
After an ATM problem which generated a large number of exim processes
which were wedged in the kernel (kill -9 failed), it was suggested that I
limit the number of incoming connections.
After discussion with ph10, I decided not to wait for it to get into exim,
The minimal one (just restrict to N coons) is a 20 line perl script,
but I am using a sexy one which records the caller info as well,
instances of calls being rejected, and tailoring based on calling host
(e.g. I allow 20 calls from within the dept [our MUA doesn't cope well if
mail isn't accepted] and 5 from outside
)
