looking for theoretical and practical insight on general multi domain email
hosting type servers...
Q1) on high volume email servers, is it wise to expire more than once a day,
or is once a day the "right" amount so that once is not always in some form
of expiring ???
the setup questions is so that we can get to what i am really driving at....
Q2) on a low, or much lower volume volume email server, is it best to expire
once a day or should it be done less frequently so that there is a better
set of data for bayes?
one one server, we have been doing it once a day, yet i am wondering if we
should do it only once or twice a week to have better info in the bayes data
set.
bayes expire itself has some 'smarts' built into it that will (depending
on the max tokens settings), try to make a choice as to what to expire.
even if you run expire every day, on a low volume server,it might not
expire anything
So, id say, make sure you use mysql plugin for bayes/awl and expire
every day, either at midnight, or 3am.
(why..? )
you want to avoid DST changes from trying to trigger a second bayes expire.
Not that any bayes expire would take from 1am to 2am, but why chance it?
