Hi Frederick:

Here is what we do:

# Version>= 1.27i28: Skip the test if weight is reached
SKIPIFWEIGHT     70
# Version>= 1.27i28: Exit the test if weight is reached
MAXWEIGHT        60
REMOTEIP          0        STARTSWITH         157.151.5
REMOTEIP          0        STARTSWITH         193.216.245.227
REMOTEIP          0        STARTSWITH         194.143.183.53


You have to be using Declude 1.27i27 or 28 (I don't remember) or higher..

Simply add them to the top of your filter files and it will do what they say
they do..

Upon start of the filter if the total weight prior to entering the filter is
70 then the filter will not run and if during the run of the filter the
weight associated with the filter reaches 60 then the filter exits.

So if you have a weight of 50 going into the filter you can exit the filter
with no more than 110 as weight.

OR

If you are running the filter and you are already at a weight of 70 then the
filter will never run and you will exit with 70.

Recommendation:

Make sure you put all your weights that have negative weight prior to the
ones with positive weight.  That is what we do - all of our negative weights
are on top of the global.cfg and we have structured our filters such that
the bigger filters are the last to execute so hopefully if the weight is
large enough prior to getting to them they will not run.

Looking at our log files it is incredible how many of the filters are not
even running anymore but they are there just in case... 

Hope that answers your question..

Regards,
Kami
