Gary, If we gave you the option to delete these messages (as SmarterMail should be doing) rather than move them to the \error directory would that solve your problem ?

SmarterMail deleting these messages was not a problem for me, Declude dumping them into the error folder is. I wasn't having a problem before 4.2.20, now I am. Everyone in support has their stint as the piñada. My users don't know who SmarterTools or Declude are, they just know when they don't get their messages or messages they send don't reach their destination. But they know who I am, so I have to hold their hands and hear their cries and then take it back to SmarterTools and Declude. And believe me, my users really know how to hit a piñada because most of them are Spanish. :) Another interesting thing is, before the decision was made to put this "fix" in a release version, didn't anyone foresee that dumping all these previously deleted files into the error folder would cause a problem? As soon as all those messages started showing up in my error directory it became pretty obvious. Seems that this work you mention that Declude is doing with SmarterMail to resolve this problem should have been done before the "fix" was put into 4.2.20. -------- Original Message -------- > From: "David Barker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2006 5:49 PM > To: declude.junkmail@declude.com > Subject: RE: [Declude.JunkMail] 4.2 build 20 Released 6 July 2006 > > Gary, > > From time to time I feel like the Declude pinyada but in this instance > we have provided a solution for what is happening in SM.
