well, using 4 CPUs for a dedicated mailserver should be enough (*lol*)

but maybe there's a mail loop or something? did you 'tail -f' your
message-logs
to see, what is actually keeping XMail so busy?

how many mails per hour are delivered/relayed on your system?

we e.g. relayed 5.000 eMails only yesterday, 16.000 times users checked
their emails (pop3),
we only have 1 CPU and system load never actually is higher then 0.00

And this allthough every incoming mail is first scanned by AntiVir and then
by Trendmicro.
