I have had a problem with my Imail server backlogging mail for years now
where the spool directory will fill with hundreds of thousands of
messages. Now it's the proc folder with the new version of declude.
This issue has been ongoing throughout the years as I have upgraded both
Imail and Declude. It has come to the point where I have to purge
500,000 messages to get my mail server running again.
500,000 message backup is pretty signifigant. You might want to look at
using QueueMon to monitor your spool / declude proc and alert you prior to
that bad of a backup.
I'm not sure what to do, as I need the virus and spam protection.
When you look at the messages back logged what do you see? Is it all Spam?
Is it to valid recipients? Do you have any nobody addresses? Do you
gateway mail or are all of your accounts hosted on that server?
What is your typical volume per day? What is the spec's on your box?
Is there a way to block all mail from Romania and china?
Yes, you can block mail from these countries by using country filters.
