Well, it just sounds like you need more RAM first which I think you agree on. Second, you may need to lower the amount of time your MIMEDefang spends on messages. Have you considered turning off the SpamAssassin Network-Based tests? Third, you need to look at your mail volume. Do you know how many messages per day/per hour you are getting? You might just simply need a more powerful machine or a cluster of machines to share the load. Fourth, are you having any issues with dictionary attacks or email harvesting? Is this machine the mail destination or just a gateway to another mail server? > True. Maybe we should just stop this email business. It's just a fad, > right? :) I'd laugh if I didn't have a customer once argue this with me.
