What are the values in sendmail.cf indicative of when they say 'Level at
which messages are just queued', and 'Level at which messages are
refused'. The defaults are 8 and 12 respectfully, but what do these
numbers mean? 8 simultainious messages, 8% of the server's usage, 80% of
the server's usage? What would be an appropriate setting for a
mid-traffic'd (3000 users) host?
