I'm very pleased to see organizations like The Apache Group using
mail-archive to help futher their projects. It's an honor.

============

With MHonArc 2.4.8 + http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/tmp/mhnull.pl
I still am not successfully blocking .jpg attachments. Not sure if I
made a mistake or if something isn't working. Configuration follows.

<MIMEFILTERS>
image/jpeg;m2h_null::filter;mhnull.pl
image/pjpeg;m2h_null::filter;mhnull.pl
</MIMEFILTERS>

<MIMEArgs override>
text/plain; maxwidth=87 asis=windows-1252:iso-8859-15
m2h_external::filter; excludeexts="src,vbs,jpg,JPG,jpeg,JPEG" usename useicon subdir 
iconurl="../attachment.gif"
</MIMEArgs>



Bounces
=======

I'm bouncing (not dropping) all incoming messages over 100KB.  This
was a conscious decision to actively discourage large messages and
the lists that carry them. Working very well.


Spam
====

My personal inbox spam continues to increase. The telltale addresses
(including [EMAIL PROTECTED]) don't seem to get corresponding spams. So
it doesn't _appear_ to be from spambots crawling mail-archive, but I'm
keeping wary. We're a pretty sizable target.


Disk
====

Disk continues to fill despite software tweaks. I've asked VA about
the possibility of loaning or donating a large disk array. If that
doesn't pan out, I will approach other storage venders as well. I
think there is a reasonable chance a company might be willing to
donate excess inventory, especially if they can get a tax writeoff.

By the way, the message count on the homepage is bogus -
it's just an linear estimator tied to df, and doesn't take into
account any of the space efficency tweaks of the last year or so. I
guesstimate mail-archive holds somewhere on the order of 10+ million
emails right now. I don't have a compuitationally cheap way to get 
real filecount.
