Hello.
I have a dedicated server where I am trying to send many emails per day, around one email every 2 seconds by a php script. That is around 43000 emails a day. Godaddy set a larger limit so I don't reach the daily send limit.
The problem is that emails get stuck in queue, I increased concurrencyremote value of qmail to 240 because some say 255 is a limit, I am afraid that setting it over 255 will drop it to a default 20 value. Now I find others saying that there is a compile-time limit of 120 (?!)
The emails I see blocked in plesk queue are normal emails that I sent, just sometimes some spam, but mostly my sent emails.
1. Is it possible that qmail only accepts concurrencyremote value of up to 120 and if I set it to 240 it dropped back to default 20?
2. Is there a command to find the current values/config used by qmail regardless if I set correct values or not? Something to show me current concurrencyremote used.
3. How to find maximum concurrencyremote accepted by my qmail/Linux version?
4. Any other values to increase to avoid emails being blocked in queue? Some mentioned that is needed to increase "maximum opened files" on Linux.
5. Any other debugging tips?
Thank you.
