(smtp) Attempted response buffer overflow

[Dan Roberts <danroberts2604 () gmail com>]

Hello,
I'm running SNORT since many days right now, and every day I get many
alerts associated to (smtp) buffer overflow.
I've noticed that the alerts are generated on both incoming/outgoing SMTP
traffic.
Questions: does it make sense to limit the alerts on incoming smtp traffic
only ?
If yes, how to implement this ?
Thanks for your help

Dan
