I stop the MTA sometimes when I know this is about to happen.
In our case, we do not see a pattern when the firewall is crashing.

Subject: [Xymon] Avoid email storm

xymon is behind a firewall and lately firewall is dying a lot and at
restore we are getting email storm about devices that are on other sites.

firewall team will have a replacement "soon".

In the meantime I guess I should add a depend (first hop) for all 2000+
devices in hosts.cfg file.

Is there another option with less editing?

Thanks for any suggestion!

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
