I'd like to limit the number of concurrent Sendmail processes delivering
mail from our server because it soaks our ISDN connection.
Uising Sendmail 8.9.2 still, and would rather some hints on modifying
sendmail.cf as I don't want to try and find the m4 file again..
I've tried setting "QueueLA" to 4 instead of 8 which might encourage
Sendmail to queue messages instead of delivering them..
"When the system load average exceeds LA, just queue messages (that is,
do not try to send them). Defaults to 8."
Is there a better way? "QueueFactor" looks promising but not sure what
it does..
Donncha.
