It's not phisical memory used, it is virtual memory. Even on linux, when you have a burst of SMTP and/or POP3 connections XMail creates threads and the OS has to allocate a 2MB *virtual* memory region for that (each thread). It then depends on the OS's VM reclaim policy to shrink it back. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
