This is what we have in our /etc/sendmail.cf file :

# load average at which we just queue messages
#O QueueLA=15
O QueueLA=25

# load average at which we refuse connections
#O RefuseLA=20
O RefuseLA=40

# maximum number of children we allow at one time
#O MaxDaemonChildren=12
O MaxDaemonChildren=24

# timeouts (many of these)
O Timeout.initial=5m
O Timeout.connect=5m
O Timeout.iconnect=5m
O Timeout.helo=5m
O Timeout.mail=10m
#O Timeout.rcpt=1h
O Timeout.rcpt=10m
O Timeout.datainit=5m
#O Timeout.datablock=1h
O Timeout.datablock=10m
#O Timeout.datafinal=1h
O Timeout.datafinal=10m
O Timeout.rset=5m
O Timeout.quit=2m
O Timeout.misc=2m
#O Timeout.command=1h
O Timeout.command=10m
O Timeout.ident=30s
O Timeout.fileopen=60s
O Timeout.queuereturn=5d
O Timeout.queuereturn.normal=5d
O Timeout.queuereturn.urgent=2d
O Timeout.queuereturn.non-urgent=7d
O Timeout.queuewarn=4h
O Timeout.queuewarn.normal=4h
O Timeout.queuewarn.urgent=1h
O Timeout.queuewarn.non-urgent=12h
O Timeout.hoststatus=30m

You can see the changes that I've made, and it works for us, but there's no
guarrantees it'll work for you. Make a backup of the file first! <smile>
