Hi Phil. Thank you for the quick reply. I was considering using amavis, but mailscanner looks promising indeed. Speedwice, what do you recommend amavis versus mailscanner. Also does your SA configuration support user defined settings as explained previously? Are you storing in sql or userfile? I am very interested in hearing about your configuration. How high is your server load with 20k per day, and what hardware do you have?
Thanks again.
