No it's not useless (I never said it was). [snip] > I understand and agree. But, as useful as looking at stats can be, it's not > the only way to gague system performance IMO.

ArchiveMaxFileSize is a start. It's usally done at the filter configuration level, CommuniGate makes it very easy, you configure your filter to be used if some conditions are true, with Sendmail it has to be a feature in a milter (I haven't seen a milter that has it, but I haven't been looking for it).
