You have a load problem due to SA - which is a large perl script. Qmail-Scanner is also a perl script. There are "C program" patches for Qmail out there that enable qmail itself to rapidly reject mail to unknown recipients. They are great as they are so efficient. That's where you need to fix this - not in Q-S :-) I'd recommend the "RECIPIENTS extension" from http://www.fehcom.de/qmail/qmail.html -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
