Ok, first of all, thank you all for replying to my thread. Yes, everyone can call me an idiot for not knowing 100% of what I'm doing. There are plenty of 'part time' sysadmins out there doing what I do. I work a full time job, and am helping out a small wireless company with their mail server. I know enough to get in trouble I guess. Some would say with 2200 users now, that this 'small' company needs to spend some money on a 'real SA'. I would agree with this but we're up against Comcast and Qwest and if we can get by without losing any email for the next year, we will be able to hire a real SA full time. So, now you know my situation. I do appreciate the feedback. Funny thing, is after I rebooted the server, things have been going great. The cpu's are running about 20% and we're handling over 1100 emails an hour. For some reason, (from my original post) that clamdscan was taking up all the cpu. Now, after reboot, it is fine. So, my next plan is to start reading up more on clam and how to build it from source and to take all the replies back and figure out how they will help with my performace. We're signing up 8-12 new subscribers a day so this is not an end to this. Thanks again for the replies. I didn't mean to cause any arguments. I do think qmailrocks.org and others sites are VERY valuable to people like me that don't have time to do things the right way. If the linux community really wants people to use their software, they need to come up with great pages like his (even though there are some problems with it). That being said, in my real job, if someone came to me and said they put 2000 uers on an Oracle database without thinking it through, I would tell them they are stupid. So, you can look at it both ways. Thanks, Eric _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
