Not sure if this really is a bug and worth changing, but did surprise me a little. Calling it from post_init works fine.
require 'rubygems'
require 'eventmachine'
class MyServer < EM::Protocols::SmtpServer
def initialize(*args)
super
self.set_comm_inactivity_timeout 240
end
end
EM.run do
EM.start_server "0.0.0.0", 2500, MyServer
end
Throws on connect:
