Scott,
The DECODE OFF option; what would it not catch (i.e. Spam) had the option been
turned on? I understand Base64, but what kind of HTML decoding? We have a server at
capacity as well, but we are not adding anymore customers to it, however, at times the
CPU is at 100% which causes the Web Messaging to be slow. However, I don't want to
sacrifice not catching some spam either. Thanks for the info.
Keith

If you were already at 50%-55%, you're close to the limits of the server.
I would recommend adding a line "DECODE OFF" to the
\IMail\Declude\global.cfg file to see if that alleviates the problem (that
will prevent some base64 and HTML decoding that v1.75 does, that could use
some extra CPU time).
