Thanks...;)

r1.2.3 is the last update I did which was a while ago but I started with
whatever version it was at a couple years ago.

I'm not sure.  I have seen anywhere from just under a second to several
seconds to even in the double digits.  The server is a p4 2.4GHz with
512M so it should have plenty of power to blow thru it faster then that.

I haven't really spent any time trying to track down where the lag
is...I only have about 40 mailboxes so it wasn't a big priority.  I know
it should be faster but...

No rejections.  I had borked a dspam upgrade once and they all just
spooled until I unborked it.

I have sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org plugged into my Vexira AntiVirus.  I love
it.  It blocks 1k-2k messages per day.

Wow.  I have one I just missed it when I put the website together.
Check the site again.  Its a tad hard coded but could be built on.

I have been meaning on doing an upgrade/backup to the server but its
hard to dump something which has worked so well...;)  I had kicked
around the idea to do a dspam-toaster.rpm but never gotten around to it.
 This sounds like there would be enough interest to make it worth it.
