Greetings,
smptd seems to be crashing every time a message with an attachment
is sent to someone in our org. Any thoughts?
(subsequently the message is rejected to the author)

I sometimes seem bounces which mention a yacc stack overflow.
Could be related.

Smptd crashes because messages longer than 64K are written
to a file rather than into memory. A rather quaint #define VMLIMIT
sets this value.
Unless /mail/tmp is generally writeable (chmod o+w /mail/tmp),
the temporary file cannot be created, since smtpd runs as none.

Apologies,
clarification: it's large attachments that seem to be the killer.
tks,
