256MB is not enough, I don't think. > Perl = 5.8.5 > SpamAssassin=3.1.2 > MimeDefang=2.56 Those are all fine. Are you running any custom rulesets? (RulesDuJour, BigEvil, etc.) Those can really inflate the size of a SpamAssassin object. If your MIMEDefang threads spend a fair amount of their time doing things besides calling SpamAssassin, you might profit from my have-MIMEDefang-use-spamc/spamd hack: http://www.mimedefang.com/kwiki/index.cgi?SpamassassinSpamcSpamd ... but 256MB is on the low side. Are you running a tmpfs file system for the spool directory? -- Matthew.van.Eerde (at) hbinc.com 805.964.4554 x902 Hispanic Business Inc./HireDiversity.com Software Engineer _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
