    <TR valign="top"><TD>otimeout</TD>
	<TD>The number of seconds to wait before timing out (&gt; 0).
	Zero means no wait, <B>not</B> "wait forever".

<!----------- Notes ---------->
<TR>
<TH valign="top" align=left>NOTES</TH> 
<TD>
Decreasing the timeout is strongly discouraged
and may break the communication with the MTA.
Do <EM>not</EM> decrease this value without making sure that
the MTA also uses lower timeouts for communication
(with the milter and with the SMTP client).
