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 ==== 10/15/02 01:31:22 INFO spoolmanager: Processing Mail1034706616783-1 through root 10/15/02 01:31:22 DEBUG spoolmanager.root: Servicing mail: Mail1034706616783-1 10/15/02 01:31:22 DEBUG spoolmanager.root: Checking Mail1034706616783-1 with org.apache.james.transport.matchers.All@17fc91e 10/15/02 01:31:22 DEBUG spoolmanager.root: Servicing Mail1034706616783-1 by Postmaster aliasing mailet 10/15/02 01:31:22 DEBUG spoolmanager.root: Checking Mail1034706616783-1 with org.apache.james.transport.matchers.HostIs@17f8390 10/15/02 01:31:22 DEBUG spoolmanager.root: Servicing Mail1034706616783-1 by 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.
