Took TB quite some time, maybe a minute to act upon the start sending command. It was using 47% of the CPU and wildly varying amounts of memory, up to 150 MB. When it actually started sending (It's still busy, looks like my server is choking a bit on the message.) CPU usage dropped heavily. The file I just sent to myself was one I actually received by mail, the idiot that sent it complained that I was the only one that received it. He didn't even get a message that the other addressee didn't get it, because his own ISP was refusing the (overly large) bouncing message. That in itself shows that it's a bad idea to send this kind of attachments. As I'm writing this message, I'm getting my 47 MB (yes, that is how big a 33 MB attachment gets on an almost empty message) message back It takes TB almost 3 seconds to display the message in the preview, even though it only says something like; 'Hi Roelof, this is a test' Opening the attachment took six or seven seconds (I'm keeping attachments in the message body), surprised me a bit that scanning it for viruses didn't take more time. -- Groetjes, Roelof If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you!
