Removed the "timeout=300s" directive from SMTP examples. Such an initial timeout is too long, and the default timeout of one minute is long enough. By removing it, we purposedly ignore the requirement of the current SMTP specification to set it to at least five minutes: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-4.5.3.2 Submitted by Maxim Dounin.

While building nginx version 0.7.66, 0.8.35 or higher on Linux
the following warning messages are issued:

<programlisting>
warning: `sys_errlist' is deprecated;
    use `strerror' or `strerror_r' instead
warning: `sys_nerr' is deprecated;
    use `strerror' or `strerror_r' instead
</programlisting>

</para>

<para>
<initial>A:</initial>
This is normal: nginx has to use the deprecated sys_errlist[] and sys_nerr
in signal handlers because strerror() and strerror_r() functions
are not Async-Signal-Safe.
