Package: sendmail
Version: 8.13.4-3sarge3
Severity: important
The default for the MTA Timeout.iconnect setting as set by the debian-mta
config file is 5 seconds. This is absurdly aggressive and causes ridiculous
amounts of unnecessary queuing. This timeout should be set to at least
30 seconds and probably more like 2 minutes.
