Yes, this would be an option, if both High-Threads are overloaded - let's see how it works the simple way. For the last days, this feature (and every change I made) was running on my prod systems without any issue. I use both scanner options. Yes, the overall system workload was a little growing, but this is normal, if now every mail or file is scanned for a virus. And not any other implementation would change this. >>I wonder why you aren't spawning another thread Sounds nice and easy - but it is'nt. Implementing another High-Thread requires a redesign of many code parts. - startup - shutdown - thread controll and monitoring - stats - SNMP - GUI - health check ............ Before I would create a new thread for the scanning, I see the chance to make both new options a 'select' [OFF, resend folder only , resend folder and collected files] . If there are virus infected files in the corpus, this does not matter as long as nobody want to access them. Even infected mail parts are used by the rebuildspamdb to make the spam detection more accuate. Only the resend is dangerous - an infected file should not (never) be resent.

I wonder why you aren't spawning another thread just for this task; all in all it will run only if this scan is enabled :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7.
