Well, it probably worked, just not enough. :)

That will alleviate the utilization issue, for sure. Depending on the
age of your server, you should think about adding an additional
processor. I find that that's one fun part about running mail on old
boxes with new disks: as it gives you ability to scale up processing
on the cheap as needed, while still giving peak performance for
disk-starved tasks. A lot of people inadvertently err on the side of
processor power by buying new boxes and ignoring DASD optimization.

Gotcha.
One thing you should know about that I'm building into SPAMC32 right
now is a SKIPIFWEIGHT option that will return 0 immediately if a
(Declude) weight has already been exceeded, thus saving processing for
way out-of-range spam.
