Hello

I was wondering if anyone can give me some insight on these messages.. I've been getting them since the postfix update.
Code:
Nov 13 10:31:56 comp postfix/anvil[25727]: statistics: max connection rate 1/60s for (smtp:24.161.175.xxx) at Nov 13 10:28:34
Nov 13 10:31:56 comp postfix/anvil[25727]: statistics: max connection count 1 for (smtp:24.161.175.xxx) at Nov 13 10:28:34
Nov 13 10:31:56 comp postfix/anvil[25727]: statistics: max cache size 1 at Nov 13 10:28:34

Doing 'man' on anvil.. I see that it's Postfix's session count and request rate control prog. So my question is this... did 24.161.175.xxx exceed the max connection rate? Did 24.161.175.xxx exceed the max connection count and cache size? Do I need to make some specific adjustments for anvil in main.cf to handle this appropriately? Basically, I think I know what anvil does.. but not sure what the log is telling me.

Current mail setup:
Code:
postfix-2.2.5
amavisd-new-2.3.3-r1
courier-authlib-0.57-r1
courier-imap-4.0.1
cyrus-sasl-2.1.20-r2
spamassassin-3.0.4
mysql-4.1.14


Thanks much.
hanji

I think this is due to anvil_status_update_time. It'll do a summary of affairs at whatever interval that is. It's not trying to tell you something specific.

while you discuss the postfix update.. did you keep your old configs, and everything was still working OK, or are the old configs incompatible with the new postfix release?

I updated on one system, and just merged config logs using etc-update. That system seems to be working fine.

Got a more complicated set-up to do later today though.

LOL!! That's very, very bad, you'll have problems with many packages, not only postfix....And to answer your question: no, your old config will not work!

Well considering ther new postfix uses more demons, and so needs to add some lines to master.cf you may just hit some problems.
