Completely dependent on the size of the messages. James slows down
exponentially based on message size (especially when storing messages in a
database)

I've been using 1.2rc1 as our main mail server for our company and a few
clients. Except for the size problem, it works very well.

Check out the TownAlias mailet... it's a crude version... checks a 2 column
table that basically just rewrites mail addresses. There is one bug in it
though in that it fails gracelessly when you're rewriting to an address that
the message is already going to, e.g., if a message is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and [EMAIL PROTECTED], and TownAlias wants to rewrite [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(just for example), then TownAlias will fail because [EMAIL PROTECTED] is already a
recipient. Should be simple to fix though.
