Every month or two, one of my customers (using Outlook) tries to send a huge huge message through my MSA. Courier dutifully rejects it after the fact (unfortunately, because apparently the client is not sending a SIZE paramater during the MAIL FROM). Five minutes later, the braindead client tries again. I've had to simply blacklist my customer's IP until they figure out how to delete the damn message. It's not courier's fault. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
