bugzilla slowdown

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


perfect timing :(  bugzilla mail is being *really* slow:

 Received: from [64.142.3.173] (HELO bugzilla.spamassassin.org) (64.142.3.173)
   by apache.org (qpsmtpd/0.27.1) with ESMTP; Mon, 07 Jun 2004 19:57:11 -0700
 Received: by bugzilla.spamassassin.org (Postfix, from userid 48)
	 id ED5FE8462F; Mon,  7 Jun 2004 13:40:04 -0700 (PDT)

it may be related to the dictionary attack on kluge.net running
at the moment against that host :(

so keep an eye on bugzilla via HTTP...

No, has nothing to do with the dictionary attack on my box.  For example:

Jun  7 11:51:36 bugzilla postfix/qmgr[632]: E27EB83B57: from=<ap...@bugzilla.spamassassin.org>, size=1149,
nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Jun  7 11:51:36 bugzilla postfix/smtp[18593]: E27EB83B57: to=<sp...@incubator.apache.org>,
relay=none, delay=1, status=deferred (connect to mail.apache.org[209.237.227.199]: server dropped
connection without sending the initial greeting)
[...]
Jun  7 19:23:21 bugzilla postfix/qmgr[632]: E27EB83B57: from=<ap...@bugzilla.spamassassin.org>, size=1149,
nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Jun  7 19:23:32 bugzilla postfix/smtp[23252]: E27EB83B57: to=<sp...@incubator.apache.org>,
relay=mail.apache.org[209.237.227.199], delay=27117, status=sent (250 Queued!
<20...@bugzilla.spamassassin.org>)

apparently mail.apache.org was dropping our connections for ~6 hours.
mail I sent to the -dev list at 11am only showed up at some point in
the evening -- my response to it showed up before the original message.


on a side tangent though, I used to have ~7k spamtrap addresses on my
box, mostly generated from previous dictionary attacks.  in the past
week, there are 140k new addresses (that's after running through uniq)
listed as "unknown" in my mail log.  <grumble>
