Comment:

 Since osgeo6 is also the mailman list server, there is a notable backlog
 of currently deferred emails:

 {{{
 root at osgeo6:/var/log# mailq | grep mailman-bounces at lists.osgeo.org | wc -l
 143069
 }}}

 This is bloating the log files since due our too high posting frequency
 emails are temporarily rejected:

 {{{
 ls -lart | grep 'mail.log\|mail.info'
 ...
 -rw-r-----  1 root     adm      959388006 Aug 14 03:45 mail.log
 -rw-r-----  1 root     adm      959408486 Aug 14 03:45 mail.info

 tail -f /var/log/mail.info
 ...
 Aug 14 03:47:41 osgeo6 postfix/smtp[11659]: 6CD906099BF8: host
 smx00.udag.de[62.146.106.132] refused to talk to me: 421 Too many
 concurrent SMTP connections from this IP address; please try again later.
 ...
 }}}

 These huge log files are eventually filling up the disk to 100%.
