I have a test gateway which receives lots (thousands a day) of spam (all incoming email is immediately delivered to /dev/null) to test the gateway against all kinds of malformed email. In 1.5 years time no email has ever been stored in the error spool. That's why I am curious what the email looked like :) Kind regards, Martijn -- Djigzo open source email encryption
