I have thought of that, the disadvantage is that it takes longer to upload.
Sending to the server on the LAN takes hardly no time, the subsequent
uploading from server to server is of course transparent to the user.
I guess I'll just leave things as they are and suffer an occasional drop in
bandwidth.
A possible workaround (on a slightly different topic)... is it possible to
prioritize ppp traffic so that SMTP traffic is given a lower priority than web
browsing etc. Taking this even further, is it possible to get qmail to
prioritize email without attachments ?
Thanks for the help,
..Chris.
