I will try the THREADS directive to see how it goes.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Proc directory backlogging from time to time

From time to time our PROC directory is backlogging emails.. We process about 60K to 80 K every day. And from time to time I found between 8K to 10K in our PROC. It seems to be an spammer flood, but my server is not able to manage it fast enough to empty the directory.

 

We use Declude (version 4.3.7), sniffer latest engine, inv-urbl and f-prot

 

When checking at the task manager I see quite a few (8 or 10) sniffer processes running at the same time as well as f-prot and inv-urbl processes, but not fast enough to empty the proc directory.

 

The PROCESSES directive seems to not work. I don't know how to speed up the processes unless I remove sniffer, inv-urbl and f-prot.

 

I run a box with XEON  Double Core 2.8 GHz, and 2.00GB of RAM running Windows 2003 server.

 

I am running Smartermail 3.3.2439

 

Any suggestions? ideas? on how to prevent backlogging in the PROC directory?
