Yabbut time can become *very* expensive. I don't know if there's a consensus or not among listmembers, but we regularly see someone wondering why things are all clogged up when autoexpire reaches the point that it takes longer to expire old tokens than the process that's trying to filter messages in real time is willing to wait... It would probably be safer to schedule a manual expire run nightly via cron, and leave autoexpire turned off. -- John Hardin KA7OHZ http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] FALaholic #11174 pgpk -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] key: 0xB8732E79 -- 2D8C 34F4 6411 F507 136C AF76 D822 E6E6 B873 2E79 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Gun Control laws cannot reduce violent crime, because gun control laws focus obsessively on a tool a criminal might use to commit a crime rather than the criminal himself and his act of violence. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 11 days until Thomas Jefferson's 264th Birthday
