Loud and clear :-) (And I mean loud!) I rebooted in the middle of processing today, and when it rebooted, it seemed each message was being (re?) tested 1 at a time, and each took about 5 or 6 seconds. Would it be possible/desirable to add a maxchildren option (or similar) i.e. limiting the number actually processed at a time? I'm sure others would benefit! -- Duncan Findlay _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
