The low reject %age is specific to this MX, where the client had invested in developping admin/reporting/mgmt backend apps around imail/declude/sniffer on Imail and that hasn't been moved to IMGate, yet. IMGate is used primarily to reject unknown recipients, and a few dangerous attachments, but none of the other usual IMGate filters. Looking at the msgs that this IMGate allows through, I expect it would reject 80+% with full IMGate advanced filtering, like a lot of other IMGates. The point is that accepting and relaying msgs is much heavier than just rejecting after RCPT TO:, and the "delivered" volume per day and per hour shows what that particular hardware is doing easily. If the machine were running full filtering the rejects would be way up, the "delivered" would be way down, and so would the machine load. Len
