14.6.10 intvl=
The illegal interval to schedule syslog equate
The sendmail program needs to schedule events that happen at future times??”for example,
processing the queue. Internally, such events are set by specifying an interval to wait before
the event is to begin. In the unusual instance that any such interval is less than or equal to
zero, sendmail will log a message such as the following:
554 5.3.0 setevent: intvl=seconds
Here, the leading 5.3.0 is reported because such an error can happen during an SMTP
session. The seconds will print as zero or as a negative number.
Should you ever see this error, the problem will most likely be found in a bad time specification
in your configuration file.

14.6.11 len=
The length of a too-long header value syslog equate
Beginning withV8.10, sendmail is able to check headers with rule sets (?§25.5 on page
1130). When such a rule set is specified as part of the H configuration command, and when
that header is found in a message, sendmail first assigns values to special variables (suchas
{hdrlen}, {currHeader}, and {hdr_name}) and then calls the appropriate rule set.
