I have some OOM problems with pmg-smtp-filter
too many childs are started here, so that even 32 GB of RAM together with the clamd exceed the memory.
I have changed in the /etc/systemd/system/pmg-smtp-filter.service.d/extend.conf
[Service]
OOMScoreAdjust=-1000

Tried to prevent the OOM from hitting and killing but this only leads to the server dying.

We then did the following:
diff /usr/bin/pmg-smtp-filter /usr/bin/pmg-smtp-filter.org
87,88c87,88
< my $min_spare_servers = 1;
< my $max_spare_servers = 5;
---
> my $min_spare_servers = 0;
> my $max_spare_servers = 0;

However, I would prefer not to do this hard coded but via a config unfortunately I can't find out where this would work, can anyone help me?
