And these evil emails are bigger than 80k? bigger than 100k? 200k? What is their size? Almost 3 years ago Shawn raised the 40k limit to 80k limit to leave pass bigger patches. We can also very well raise it again to, say, 120k. I don't think that this will open the door to evil emails... > BTW, now that fjf committed the patch, the problem > is solved. > > Hub > > PS: you should have received a bounce for the > rejected e-mail. Nope. I didn't get anything at all. Radio silence. Cheers, P.S.: Leave pass evil emails is bad. Block legal emails is much worse IMO. ===== Joaquin Cuenca Abela [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!
