Subject: [Exim] Putting only am certain amount of mails in the remote Q
Hi,

is it possible to put only a certain amount of mails in the remote queue?

I do have the following problem: I do check mails via spamassassin on my
linux-box. When mail are been deliverd to my linux-box for each mail an own
spamassassin-process is started. Normally this works quite fine. But when my
primary MX is down and comming mack again, it may be confronted with some 100
mails to be deliverd simuntaniously. This causes a tremendous OS-Level, so
this box hang a bit.

It there any posibility for configuring my backup-MX not to delivier all mails
at the same time (e.g. only 10 Mails per minute)?

Sorry for my english.

Greetings
Martin
