Hi,
Yes, this machine is new (disk upgrade)! And my problem wasn't the
number of users or the number of emails/day. My problem begins with AMaViS
0.2.1 the shell script keep forking more and more utilities (grep, fgrep,
cat, uvscan, tar, etc), and on some times there are up to 300 processes
running! (my concurrentremote are set to 120).
This isn't the place to start another flame war between Linux and
FreeBSD, but my server has the MySQL DB, QMail (with Courier-IMAP) and
Apache (to run IMP). Now with AMaViS Perl all is running fine again, and I
can handle much more than 6K users on this computer!
Antonio.
