I also get this "synchronization error (input sent without waiting for
+greeting)" often in my mailing logs. After reading your mail I have
changed the rfc1413_query_timeout to 0s but I still get one very
minute or two in the logs (on a server that handles about 30000 emails
per day and rejects about 12000 emails (viruses, spam and bounces)).
Is it just a case of mail servers not using the correct protocol or is
it something I can (should) correct on my side?
