Well, sure, that's the idea. A lot more than 30, of course. > How much users are realistic vor 5xxSink? This depends on: - disk speed - disk/RAID cache - CPU speed - number of simultaneous connections - placement of addresses within the list; if users/domains at the top of the list receive more mail, the average lookup time will be lower, and vice versa - ratio of bad rcpt attempts to good rcpts; a bad rcpt requires a full file scan before failing, while a good rcpt "short-circuits" after n lines/cycles A single connection can do a full scan on a 100,000 user list (bad rcpt) in less than a second. Real-world results as you add connections will be more complex. I might think about adding code that would write an event to the event log if lookups start taking more than a predefined threshold such as 2 seconds. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude EVA www.declude.com] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
