Yes, I'm referring to the ACL tab under "SMTP Security" with IP ranges.
100 entries huh? that would be odd (dumb, and other lesser accepted adjectives), I block for instance all of 200/8, 210/8, 211/8, 80/8 and so on. Probably 8 class A's, a whole bunch of class B's, and a BUNCH of '24's, ..... and NEVER see any inbound messages from those ranges.
The smaller client recieves about 2500-5000 inbound per day
Have been using Imail since 1998, and don't buy that. Not unless they made a change in v8, which of course would be just plain stupid.

Two clients, one on 7.15 one on 8.03. Both have extensive (5000-10,000) IP ranges entered in the ACL list.
As messages intended for these machines that are rejected by the ACL list never gets recieved by Imail, there is no record of the attempt, right?
Is there anyway I can tell how many emails we are rejectng based on the ACL list alone? My guess is that it's substantial (50% of all intended incoming), but I need to be able to prove it to $CLIENT
By ACL are you referring to the IMail SMTP "Control Access" file (which restricts the IPs that can connect)? If so, Ipswitch recently posted that there is a limit of 100 entries. So if 1/2 of your E-mail is rejected by your list of 5-10K entries, you are lucky. :)
Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any way of calculating how many E-mails are rejected that way.
