I'm a bit of a newbie, so bare with me...

I'm running James 2.03a as a service using alexandria with the Sun 1.3.1.05 JVM and am 
having problems with messages with large attachments never getting processed in spool. 
 I am also using the file system for spool rather than a database.  I have James 
configured with a max message size of 0 and a SMTP server timeout at 6 minutes.

I ran a search on the mail list and saw where some users had similar problems with 
large attachments, but I don't think I ever saw a resolution to the problem.  The box 
is shared with our test websphere environment, but there is plenty of horsepower on 
this box, and it is mostly idle outside of working hours.

I sent a message yesterday with a 9 megabyte attachment and that message sat in spool 
for over 25 hours and never got processed before I deleted it.  In the spool manager 
log file I see the following entries.

10/15/02 01:31:22 INFO  spoolmanager: ==== Begin processing mail Mail1034706616783-1 
====

There is never a message about processing finished or the message being removed from 
spool.  Nothing is logged from our mailet, so It seems like the mailet isn't 
processing the message.   I tested again with another 9 meg attachment and an 18 meg 
attachment with similar results.  I'm going to try smaller sizes and see if there is a 
point at which it works.

Does anyone have any ideas for making this work?  We need James to handle large 
attachments.

Thanks in advance
-Brian

At this point
