Description

Not sure why this happens, but I've seen it in Python and now in mail_daemon. This occurs after the operation has clearly timed out (~10-15s).

If you're talking about timeouts from sockets with SO_SNDTIMEO or SO_RCVTIMEO set then that's the correct behaviour.

Are you talking about sockets at all? Your report is pretty unspecific to be able to do anything about it.

comment:3 by waddlesplash, 9 years ago

Yes, sorry, it is about sockets. I've been able to reproduce it quite easily by making mail_daemon or Python try to fetch an address that resolves but times out when attempting to connect.
