The basic rules should be : 1) if you do not understand it, do not touch it 2) if it is not heavily documented, you probably do not need to change it That said, both 3 and 10000 are very bad values for different reasons. By setting 10000, you'll have 5 * 10000^2 entries inside your fs, and this is usually not good. Again, if you do not experience more than 100000 messages _inside_ your queue, leave it as is. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
