OG commented on JAMES-134:
--------------------------

I point out the major problems:

A) A mail server shouldn't take so much RAM. 
It doesn't have to take RAM of the size of the messages that it delivers. 
Not to mention that what it really does is taking RAM of a size that is 7 times 
the
message size. 
B) Since it took so much RAM, it should give it back once it don't need it 
anymore.
James doesn't give back the RAM that it took.

My Jave -version:
-------------------------------
java version "1.4.1_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_01-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_01-b01, mixed mode)

> Large emails in the spool cause SpoolManager to throw OutOfMemoryError

>          Key: JAMES-134
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-134
>      Project: James
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: SpoolManager & Processors
>     Versions: 2.0a3, 2.1, 2.1.3, 2.2.0
>  Environment: Operating System: MacOS X
> Platform: Macintosh
>     Reporter: Matt Bishop
>     Priority: Blocker

>
> Steps to repro:
> 1. Send yourself a very large email (16 megs works for me)
> 2. check the SpoolManager log and see this over and over:
> ERROR spoolmanager: Exception in JamesSpoolManager.run null
> java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
> What makes this problem particularly bad is that the spoolmanager doesn't 
> move on to other 
> messages but keeps pegging the CPU trying to process this email.  To fix it, 
> I have to shut down 
> james, delete the email files out of spool and restart.
> EXPECTED: email should spool to the user as expected.
