Can you share more about your server's configuration and can you also
post the .stat file that was produced?

Server OS?
Server CPU(s)?
Drive System(s)?
Mail Server SW?

Pete,
Thanks for the reply.  

Running on an IBM Xseries 225 Dual Xeon 2.4Ghz w/ 1GB RAM -
running IBM's ServerRAID 5i in IBM's RAID 10 config (4 73GB 10K drives)
- O/S is Windows 2000 Standard Server SP4

Running Imail 8.15HF1 with Declude JM/Virus 1.82 - BIND DNS
Server is 1 hop away (on switch backbone).  I had to drop back to the
non-persistent mode, thus the .stat file disappeared.  I will run it
again tonight and copy the file away and post it here tonight.  

Thanks again for the time and aid.

Keith Johnson

KJ Pete,
KJThanks for the follow-up.  I was monitoring the
KJ filename.persistent.stat file that yields stats as messages are
KJ processed.  Is it normal for it to every now and then flash [File
KJ is Empty], thus no stats at all.  Usually within a few seconds
KJ stats would appear again.  Thanks again,

This usually means that you were reading the file just as it was being
written. When the file is output it is opened with O_TRUNC to truncate
the file so it can be replaced. If you read it at that moment you will
see nothing so this is normal.

Hope this helps,
