No. MD should not have any problems with large messages unless your filter is calling SpamAssassin on them or doing some sort of other intensive scan. Personally I would never bypass MD on any message, because my filter does critical things on both incoming and outgoing mail (like, for example, discarding virus-generated spam with .pif attachments). I suppose a large message could cause a problem if your spool volume is on a slow drive, since MD has to create a work directory and write the message to it, but if that were the case I would think you would have issues constantly, with messages of all sizes. If you want to send me your filter off-list (or post a link to it) I can take a quick look and see if anything jumps out... ___________________________________________ Michael Sims Project Analyst - Information Technology Crye-Leike Realtors Office: (901)758-5648 Pager: (901)769-3722 ___________________________________________ _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
