Thanks Logan, it was a good idea to check the du -k : 696046 auto-whitelist
Looks like the file is half used in fact... Regarding the volume, I have about 40000 messages by day including spam, and if I remember well, I thing this file has never been cleared...

You might try typing "du -k auto-whitelist". It could be a sparse file, and the amount of disk it's actually using isn't as large as what you think. It does seem a little large, but it's hard to tell. Mine is this size: -rw------- 1 root root 5234688 2006-08-31 12:04 auto-whitelist but then, I have a fairly low-volume site (less than 1000 messages a day, including spam) with not all that many users. - Logan
