This was suppose to be a holiday ... I didn't need this. Imail 8.22 Declude 3.0.5.22 EVA & Junkmail Pro F-Prot/ClamAV/Sniffer
I had a problem similar to Darrell's. After noticing very little mail going through the server yesterday and then this morning, came in to find 20,000+ msg in \proc folder. It does appear Decludeproc had a major senior moment -- had climbed to 510,000K in task manager. Couldn't stop service; I rebooted. Mail started moving, but slowly and Decludeproc moved up to 400,000K +. Based on previously comments, I added DNSOVERRIDE to declude.cfg. Mail is moving faster and Decludeproc is sitting around 100,000K. Now down around 9,000 msgs to go -- light at the end of the tunnel -- just hope it isn't an on-coming train! I guess I conclude with this: 1. where's the documentation on DNSOVERRIDE - couldn't find any. 2. at least the msgs weren't lost, just held up - a plus for the Declude model. 3. I'm not standing in some &%$#&* return/exchange line.

Hi Darrell, My Declude is working as Pro still. Looking back I find an undeliverable message to: Delivery failed 20 attempts: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am not sure if this is a call home message or not since it has part of a message that I sent to Declude support earlier at the bottom of the Undeliverable message. I do know that the message that is at the bottom got through as David (of Declude) replied to it.
