Hi KAM,

Well, I have an application that sends out around 400 to 500 e-mails per day, but other than that, there are about a dozen or so personal e-mail accounts.

        That should be < 20,000 per month.

I just hived off the last 1,000,000 lines of the current mail.log file for a quick check. The messages cover the 6 minute period:

        Apr 4 23:24:26 to 23:30:40

        The text "info: spamd: processing message" appears in that 162,761 
times.

        Kind regards.

        Jim.

    It looks like my mail.* logs are rotated weekly. I'll change that so

good for the disk and CPU if I can reduce the amount of data being logged.

Well, how many emails are you processing because I process a million or so a
month and my logs are much MUCH smaller with MORE logging enabled?

I'm just wondering if you process a stuff load of email and your logs represent
that mail volume.  I didn't see anything under the "too much logging" category
in the log sample.

Regards,
KAM
