Peter is very smart developer, but not a systems guy. You probably noticed our back-and-forth about ORF's 64-bit support. During our off-list continuation, I was struck equally by his lack of facility with certain common OS features (such as COM+) and yet the expertise with which he built ORF for scaleability and performance. I don't expect him to do in-depth tweaking outside of his app (and I'm sure he didn't touch these parameters here). > I personally would be surprised to see a fixed (non-tweakable) > thread limit, but I can't make a judgment without some form of > verification of your suggestion considering the guidance that I was > given (I'm not the programmer nor the expert). Tweak the settings and open up a lot of sessions to your server; you will see that the number of worker threads (as opposed to I/O ports) that can be created rises accordingly. > Regarding the MS SMTP tarpitting, you have to trust me on that, or > at least test it yourself before suggesting that I am wrong here. I'm sure you _are_ seeing aggravated problems with tarpitting enabled. Yet it's clear that you've observed problems with oversize messages _whether or not_ tarpitting is enabled, and you treated that fact insufficiently, it seemed to me. From what you wrote, it sounds like running the sink that I wrote for the non-tarpitting server would solve both problems. As you may have noticed, it generates a DSN that does not include the original message, just the subject line, the message size, and the size limit. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude EVA www.declude.com] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
