Robin, I don't believe getting 300 messages at once is a big problem. On my router (P5 90Mhz) fetchmail downloads all messages at once from my ISP and directly deliver it to my mail server (dual PII 350MHz). There I have exim running which calls spamc one time per message (regardless receiver it has). I could, if I need, limit the number of messages that gets delivered and therefore scanned from one connection. The rest gets queued and will be delivered by the next queue runner (usally every 30 min). Everything works like a charm. You don't gave much information, so I don't have an idea 'bout the bottlenecks at your side.

First, thanks to those who answered my question re stopping razor checks.
Now, another question. Because we are now in a remote location, running off a generator and using a dialup, we can't run 24/7. This means each morning when we fire things up, there are about 300 messagesto be hauled down by fetchmail from a remote server. If I run spamd/spamc site-wide, it makes the d/l of mail quite slow. I tried invoking spamd/spamc using kmail's filters (per website). While that got the mail onto the server quickly, it slowed each kmail to a crawl (kmail is not the best example of multithreading I've ever seen.)
Does anyone have an idea of how I could overcome these bottlenecks???
