I have most all of the latest parts/updates on my system.. Dual AMD 2400 + MP cpu Apache 2.0.53 UW Imap 2004e SM 1.4.4 PHP 4.3.9 - 32 b memory allocation - 30 sec timeout. No shell accounts Gobs of memory (4 gb) Server side sorting on I just have not had a lot of time to debug it.. but I do beleive it hangs on large file attachments.. and mostly on my own mail as I am the most abusive user on the system out of about 100 accounts (all email). There are only 2 shell accounts.. mine and a friend who is *NIX safe.. And the accounts are used just for admin. But now that I am thinking more about this.. I am going to try and push the PHP timeout limit out to 60 secs as I have huge mailboxes on a UW Imap (slow) and I also allow 20 mb attachements in the email. I will let you know what I find in a few days. -R -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rich Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netlynx.us/rich/ ham radio: kf6arx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ No trees were destroyed in the sending of this message; however, a significant number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ And remember - if it ain't broke, hit it again. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
