Thanks all! Now the reason that I want to use the Event Sink way is because there is no more need then that... And like said, GFI is no longer. Neither the doc on Smallbizz.
I know there is a manipulation needed on SMTP level, but I just don't see it. If somebody knows the little trick (was it an additional connector or virtual server)...? Thanks for the other inputs so far. Bart On 8/3/06, Joe Kaplan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Sure, I saw the message and remembered that we were still using a disclaimer script for this, so I thought I'd offer some help, but a word of caution about the fact that the script can get tricky. With only that many users, many of those problems might never show up. We have a few more users than that (ok, 4 orders of magnitude!), so we see a lot of weird stuff that is hard to even imagine when you are testing the code. :) The product is probably a better choice, especially if it is cheap. We really did try to buy a product to do this as we wanted more features and fewer problems (or someone else to blame them on), but only the script had reasonable performance. Everything else brought our gateways to their knees and had to be disabled. I was shocked by this actually. :) Joe K. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan Bradley, CPA aka Ebitz - SBS Rocks [MVP]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org> Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2006 9:24 PM Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] OT - Adding disclaimer on E2K3 on a SBS 2K3 box > This is an SBS box..... we may have performance problems.. but it's > certainly not caused by a SMTP sink event on that Exchange server ;-) > Remember at the most we're only hosting 75 users/devices on that server > with a max of 75 gigs (remember no snickering from the Enterprise folks) > of Store. > > (and reading his message.. see why I went with Policypatrol? > > Joe Kaplan wrote: >> We actually use a script at work after having tried a few products and >> having terrible performance problems.
