Speaking of logging, would it be possible to add using a syslog daemon as an option, I don't know off hand if it will save any processing power, but it seems like it might since you will no longer have to manage log file resources (locking, checking creation, destination folder). It would certainly allow for more file IO savings by moving to a remote machine. Plus, syslog daemons should already have the extra code to prevent the garbage log lines Declude occasionally gets under heavy loads (multiple partial entries on one line).

The original purpose for the multiple lines was for cases where different recipients had different settings (which accounts for the multiple "Message OK" and "Message failed" lines). However, what we may do is change this so that one line will appear for each test that fails (which allows the reason for failure to be included), but then for each recipient, have a single line that shows each test name and the action taken. That should help condense the log file quite a bit. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
