Hello Berend, You're right, it's a good question but: It *is* Sendmail ;-) I will try the features you told me, what do you think of this setting, there is 150 PCs behind a 128k leased line. O RefuseLA=15 O MaxDaemonChildren=30 O ConnectionRateThrottle=2
I wonder if "ConnectionRateThrottle" will just make the client wait or if he will refuse the connection (would be crazy !). Thanks. JF.
