NAME

       qmail-limits - artificial limits in the qmail system

DESCRIPTION

       The  qmail  system  is able to handle messages of any size, addresses of any size, mailing
       lists of any size, and so on, except as limited by the available memory and disk space.

       However, it imposes certain artificial limits:

       1.   qmail-lspawn silently limits the number of  simultaneous  local  deliveries  to  120.
            qmail-rspawn silently limits the number of simultaneous remote deliveries to 120.

       2.   qmail-queue rejects any message with an envelope address longer than 1000 characters.

       3.   qmail-lspawn  truncates  any  overly  long  error report from a delivery program.  It
            appends a note saying that it did so.
