SMTP connection timeout

807574Aug 12 2005 — edited Feb 11 2020
Hi,
This question might sound naive, but I just couldn�t find the answer.
For POP, IMAP and HTTP it is easy to setup idle connection timeout (just use configutil).
But what about SMTP connections?
It is set by default on some value (if I just telent on port 25 and live the connection idle, the message �Connection to host lost� will appear after aproximetly 5 minutes), but I cannot find where it can be changed.
On the other hand, what if connection is not idle, but the user is trying to send a bit biger mail but the link is really slow� how is this treated, what is the timeout for this situation and where this can be changed?
Thanks a lot, as always :)
