Like I said... I don't think it's the zero byte issue. Interesting code though. I actually created an NT specific Custom Tag (ResendUndeliverableMail3) which does this same thing, plus allowing respooling to other mail servers and a few other things. If you are interested, it might be a worthwhile project to rewrite a linux verion of the tag. -Cameron -------------------- Cameron Childress elliptIQ Inc. p.770.460.1035.232 f.770.460.0963 -- http://www.neighborware.com America's Leading Community Network Software > -----Original Message----- > From: Erik Retz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2001 7:58 PM > To: CF-Linux > Subject: RE: Cold Fusion keeps restarting, help! > > > I created the following script that I schedule that deletes 0 byte files > and moves files from the undeliver directory back into the spool.
