Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Max number of files in directory?

2006-04-13 Thread R. Scott Perry
 On NTFS systems, this is most likely app-related such as Explorerer 
where they have to deal with
 slogging through all the extra files, as noted by another poster.   
An App opening a specific file will
 see almost no degradation because the NTFS uses a tree structure to 
maintain fast access to a file by name.


Very true.  Getting that one file is very quick.

The reason that Explorer is so slow is that it has to at the very least 
get the name of every single file.  In the DOS days, that was relatively 
quick and easy (a directory of 20,000 files would take up about 320K).  
With NTFS, though, each file typically uses 8K, so 20,000 files would 
take up 150MB.  So doing a directory listing of 20,000 files is like 
loading a 150MB files.  Worse, if the directory is fragmented (which is 
very common), it takes even longer.


With millions of files, it can take hours just to do directory listings.

As someone else pointed out, disabling the last access time can help; 
also, disabling 8.3 can help too (only on computers with no programs 
that need 8.3, so you have to be careful with that).  Disabling 8.3 can 
help a lot if the first 5-6 characters of the filenames are often the same.

[Declude.JunkMail] Declude/smartermail problems

2006-04-13 Thread scott_powner








We have been periodically experiencing problems with
Smartermail not sending any mail or sending mail to different people than you
may have intended. Smartermail has looked at our configuration numerous
times and never found anything. Yesterday afternoon after a particularly
bad day we called again. Smartermail told us that Declude was set up
incorrectly. 

We are using Declude 3 and Smartermail 3 both Pro
versions. We have about 8,000 users spread across 20 different
domains. 

Smartermail told us to remove the c:\smartermail\declude.exe
%filepath statement from the configuration (they had told us to put it there in
the first place). We removed it and mail was no longer being checked by Declude.
We then enabled it under the antispam settings. Mail was no longer
processed. 

We called Declude. They had us send them a copy of our
Global.cfg and $default$.junkmail as well as a log file. They said it
would be a few days. 

Does anyone out there have any idea what could be the
problem or at least a direction we could try. 



Thanks!

SmarterMail3 / Declude integration is very different than before.  Here
is how we have things setup:

1) SmarterMail General Settings - Spool options: No command line
process specificed

2) SmarterMail Anti-Spam - Spam Checks:  Decluded enabled for
filtering.  Edit the weights to reflect your standard subject, hold,
delete weights

3) SmarterMail Anti-Spam - Filtering:  Configure the appropriate
actions based upon your weights.

4) SmarterMail Anti-Spam - Options: We have 'allow domains to override
filter weights and actions' enabled

Now, in your Declude $default$.junkmail set your WEIGHT tests to WARN.
Declude will pass the weight to SmarterMail, and SmarterMail will filter
according to the actions you set in step 3.

Thanks!

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Max number of files in directory?

2006-04-13 Thread Rick Baranowski
I am not sure if this will help on this issue but is worth a shot. There are
some other setting we change on the folder view settings that we set when we
have remote users connecting remotely with a VPN. This seems to help with
the speed when they are browsing the folder structure.

First change the folder view to classic the XP view tries to obtain a lot of
info with this view.

Next
Folder Optionsviewadvanced setting set the following.

Not checked
Not checked
Checked
Not Checked

Second option
Not checked
Not checked
Not checked
First option

Not checked

Then apply to all folders

Hopefully this will help

That's what we tried but nothing gets blocked with it configured that way.
The Declproc never seems to correctly do it's thing.  Nothing is in the

Maybe I should re-rename the declproc.smartermail and try again.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Max number of files in directory?

2006-04-13 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
I agree with the changes advised in this thread for registry settings.
Let me point out that these are meant to be applied on the server where
the files are, and not, for example, to a workstation that is trying to
manipulate a folder over the network.

I've been trying out Servant Salamander from http://www.altap.cz/ which
I investigated because I was looking for a good modern implementation of
Midnight Commander (which is in turn a good modern implementation of
NC or Norton Commander).

It gets my highest praise: It Just Works.

I can use it over my WAN to my Declude spam folder and wait less than 90
seconds to get a complete directory listing with over 380,000 files in
it (and that's a busy server with none of the NTFS performance reg
hacks).  Tip: If you really work interactively with folders this big,
turn off the automatic refresh in the configuration options.

There's a free older version and a current version that is cheap.

Andrew.

P.s. Ever used Sysinternals.com tools to monitor explorer.exe with
filemon.exe or regmon.exe?  It's incredible how much extra work Explorer
is doing behind the scenes, so it's no wonder that a light file manager
can do the job quicker.  In Mark Russinovich's blog, he pointed out just
how bad that is (which has since been optimized in Vista):

Do you also have declude.exe in the same path as decludeproc - this is
required to move the messages.  What version of Declude are you running?
make sure it's the latest.  Have you checked filemon to see what's
happening with the smartermail directory and spools?  Do you see
Decludeproc in your task manager?  Any declude.exe's ?

Hi Dave -

There have been some bugs with the way Declude handles SmarterMail's XML
files, which could result in some issues with mail sent to domain
aliases and autowhitelist.  However, these are resolved now - as far as
I'm aware.  Overall, I much prefer having Declude integrated with
SmarterMail in the way that it is with SmarterMail 3 - our customers now
have real control over their spam handling.

Thanks!

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Max number of files in directory?

2006-04-13 Thread Matt




One other thing that helps out a lot with this is to use some form of
RAID that spans. A single drive or mirrored drives that try to read a
bunch of files while also doing regular tasks would be impossible with
that many files, in fact Explorer is prone to crashing under those
circumstances. I find that RAID 5 with 5 drives can easily handle
100,000 files in a matter of seconds, but it seems to get worse with
more files in a sort of exponential rate.

  I agree with the changes advised in this thread for registry settings.
Let me point out that these are meant to be applied on the server where
the files are, and not, for example, to a workstation that is trying to
manipulate a folder over the network.

I've been trying out Servant Salamander from http://www.altap.cz/ which
I investigated because I was looking for a good modern implementation of
Midnight Commander (which is in turn a "good modern implementation" of
NC or Norton Commander).

It gets my highest praise: It Just Works.

I can use it over my WAN to my Declude spam folder and wait less than 90
seconds to get a complete directory listing with over 380,000 files in
it (and that's a busy server with none of the NTFS performance reg
hacks).  Tip: If you really work interactively with folders this big,
turn off the automatic refresh in the configuration options.

There's a free older version and a current version that is cheap.

P.s. Ever used Sysinternals.com tools to monitor explorer.exe with
filemon.exe or regmon.exe?  It's incredible how much extra work Explorer
is doing behind the scenes, so it's no wonder that a light file manager
can do the job quicker.  In Mark Russinovich's blog, he pointed out just
how bad that is (which has since been optimized in Vista):

Does anyone know of either a hard or practical limit on the 
number of files that a directory may contain under Windows XP?

[Declude.JunkMail] Declude whitelisting with SmarterMail Trusted Senders

2006-04-13 Thread Gary Steiner
Now that I have installed Declude 3.1 with SmarterMail 2.6, I see that Declude 
is whitelisting certain addresses based on SmarterMail's Trusted Senders 
section of My Spam Filtering.  Is there any way to turn this feature off in 
Declude so that it continues to function as part of SmarterMail but not in 
Declude?
