Max Size of Emails * Number of MD threads = Ram Disk so for a 10mb Email size and 15 threads it would be 150mb (+a few mb for the heck of it - but you get the idea)

I think moving /var/spool/MIMEDefang onto a RAMdisk is a good idea. I've not set up a RAMdisk before, but I've done some googling and think I can get it done. Question: I have 512 MG RAM on the system. Say I decrease MX_MAXIMUM to 15, how big should I make the RAMdisk?
