I'm wondering if maybe this should be default on new versions of SA? Set it by default for, say 25. The user can then set it higher or lower as needed, or to "0" for unlimited.
Just a thought? I set both of my spamd machines to -m25 (about 40k messages/wk, 80% spam) and that works fine. Both machines are 2.4GHz P4s with 384mb.
