Since yesterday my three Debian mail servers had a lot of loadaverage
problems. Something I saw in the logs that I did not see previously was
a lot of entries like this:
2006-12-11 15:50:08 1GtlXi-00052O-5W demime acl condition: double
headers (content-type, content-disposition or content-transfer-encoding)
I have just counted the lines for two of those messages and the result
shows something that cannot be normal:
$ grep "1GtlXi-00052O-5W demime acl condition" -c /var/log/exim4/mainlog
2560
And on another server:
$ $ grep -c "1GtlJE-0004Xq-OP demime acl condition" /var/log/exim4/mainlog
2326
What is causing this? This type of log-entry has cause an hourly
logfile to grow to 650Mb (normally about 2-3 Mb).
Regards
Johann
