Monkeys RBL timeouts

[Furnish, Trever G]

I have quite a few similar entries - however, out of 153 timeout log
entries, only 9 are "7 of 7".

grep 'timed out and was killed' maillog | wc -l
    154

grep 'timed out and was killed' maillog | grep Monkeys | wc -l
    153

But come to think of it, I'm not sure how the code works.  If it reaches "7
of 7", then that probably means that it also logged all of these lines for
the same batch:
        ...consecutive failure 1 of 7
        ...consecutive failure 2 of 7
        ...consecutive failure 3 of 7
        ...consecutive failure 4 of 7
        ...consecutive failure 5 of 7
        ...consecutive failure 6 of 7

If that's a valid assumption, then that means each '7 of 7' entry accounts
for 7 lines, which in turn means that 63 of those matching lines are
actually complete timeouts that went all the way to '7 of 7'.

And that in turn means...  nevermind. :-)  So, um, what was the question?
Oh yeah:

Yes. :-)
