Actually I'm thinking that the existing overflow queue logic would work well. Simply, if the Have-I-Seen-This test fails then the message is pushed into a DelayedScan queue. Everything older than UserSpecifiedDelay that is in the DelayedScan queue gets put into the overflow queue to be processed - or simply picked up and scanned as if it were. As I understand it, the overflow queue gets scanned as it is put back - so this is a fairly minor trick. _M --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
