Hello Bowie, Probably you're right. I didn't know about a relay client method, so we was fixing the mail queue filenames :) Sorry for off topic, but I'm very curious about your experiences with GFS for Courier, because we think about using any distributed file system in our mail system. Could you please write us more about it? Did you try also another distributed file systems, for example Coda or Lustre? What's your opinion?
