We are receiving near this much mail traffic, I get about 1 connection every 2 seconds, average of 50k messages per day.
I am using spamD on 3 different servers to spread the load around, it's working great! In am also running my own creation (WinSpamC) which allows for load-balancing between multiple spamD servers, without this, things might not be so pretty for us! Try turning off Bayes and see if that helps increase the scan time, I've seen a few issues with corrupted bayes! Are you using the -m switch with SpamD?? Try setting this to a value of 10 or 20 and see if that helps. Frederic Tarasevicius Internet Information Services, Inc.
