Scott? hmm, I know Imail rules doing the scanning can really slow down Imail, and I know postfix scanning can also eat a bunch of cpu if you are not super careful about the regex's. So I really can't see how Declude scanning can scan without taking any CPU resources?? >pop3d32 Since pop is basically "emtpy the mailbox file" out to the user's mail progarm, I assume pop3d is mainly concerned with reading the disk, so I expect my first suggestion of 1) separate queue disk from mailbox disk and 2) much faster disks would relieve the pop3d congestion. >>Do you ever send out bulk E-mail (mailing lists, for example)?

Faster disk is ALWAYS better on mail servers. Len Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
