1) I did say this was for a "low volume" server several posts ago.... As volume goes up, the time interval should decrease, but the concurrent connection limit might remain the same (or increase even less slowly). 2) A secondary MX would obviously be exempted at the primary by another firewall rule specifying its IP address(es). _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
