Good thought - I have gone into F-Prot and listed as exceptions the .smd/mdx/lst type files, and it seems to be running smoother.
BTW all my incoming with exception of one domain comes in via a gateway server, which does A/V scan the mail, so the vast majority of incoming virus mails are already stripped before entering the Imail system. ====================================== Stop spam on your domain, Anti-spam solutions http://www.clickdoug.com/mailfilter.cfm For hosting solutions http://www.clickdoug.com ====================================== If you woke up breathing, congratulations!
