spohr is already running a nameserver, so it would have to run on an alternate port. I havn't looked into how hard it would be to convice spamassassin to use something like this. > What's causing most of the load right now?

We have less than 1 second to process each message on average. Any good recomendations for a perl inter-process communications library? Once it becomes multi-threaded CPU usage could become an issue, especially if we upgrade to spamassassin 3. -- Blars Blarson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.blars.org/blars.html With Microsoft, failure is not an option.
