Steve,

I recommend to disable all image processing in the OCR plugin (only use 
the PDF-text parts). How ever, if you want to use it, you have to 
controll, that imagemagik and tesseract are working well. You have to 
learn tesseract to 'OCR' - the default definition files are not enough. 
Keep in mind, that imagemagik will convert all images to an uncompressed 
format. So a 2MB image could get a size of 30MB. Running tesseract on such 
a large file, will need 100% CPU (per thread)  for a long long time. 
Because tesseact is called at system level, we don't have any controll 
about it - this could lead in a complete stucking system, if the number of 
cores is equal to the number of processed images at a time.

What I want to say is, any part of assp and the plugins could be easy 
used, except the OCR plugin. Using the OCR needs an extravagant manual 
expense in system design and configuring (learning) tesseract - I expect 
at least one week or even more. I gave up on tesseract after a week of 
work. It was processing well on standard fonts - but spammers are smart, 
they never uses standard fonts and they change them too often. It is much 
more easy to detect spammers with the other assp filters.

Ok, I seem to be able to confirm this. If I send a plain email, it gets 
sent once. If I attach or embed a picture then the mail is resent 
constantly.....assp_ocr is disabled and only one email gets sent.....

OK, I'm still trying to hunt down why I am sending multiple messages per 
email. I may be wrong, but it's looking like an imagemagic issue going by 
the Exchange 2010 smtp log. Anyone seen this before? I have many of these 
entries, and they all end at the imagemagik decoding....

Again, this is the Exchange 2010 smtp log...
