DB> 1. 3.0.3 in our testing has been considerably quicker than that of earlier versions of Declude.
Dave, at the top of my suggested list for "new code" in declude.exe has been to do robust MIME decoding so that Declude PRO text filters no longer grind the raw layer of attachments for spammy text. That alone would make Declude orders of magnitude faster, more accurate, and lighter on RAM. Meanwhile, Matt's SizeOf.vbs and Scott's compiled version have been a great stopgap for me. If anybody out there is wondering what the heck I'm talking about, check the archive for my posting of my SKIPATTACH test.
