The sysadmin on one of my sites is complaining about the innd message
"internal rejecting huge article (%d > %d)". He doesn't think it should be an
L_ERROR, because errors get emailed to him. I have to agree, that that
rejection is not an error, it's a policy decision. For consistency with the
rejections in the perl filter, it should be an L_NOTICE.
If you agree, I'd like to submit the following patch on inn 2.2.1:
*** innd/nc.c.bak Thu Sep 9 09:32:21 1999
--- innd/nc.c Thu Sep 9 09:32:42 1999
