Hello, although you don't give information about the system (OS etc), the best candidate, for the heavy load is the mailscanner - spamassasin combo. I suspect that you are noticing this when the message is being processed by these two ...
I suspect you have the classic two queue configuration for mailscanner and that spamassasin is being invoked by the local mailer (Mlocal in sendmail terms ...). The best solution I can think of is "moving" up in the mail saga those two checks, where your MTA has done already most of the required job. I do not now mutch of postfix (yeah sendmail user/maniac here ...) but you could try something like mimedefang or anything else that is milterAPI equivalent for postfix ... -- Georgatos Evaggelos Network Operations Center Department of Informatics University of Athens Panepistimioupolis, Illisia 157 84, Athens Greece ------------------------------------------ Cantadas Fracas Homem: Se eu pudesse te ver nua, eu morreria feliz.
