Before mentioning the problem the configuration that I have used in qmail is as follows:- qmail config -- 1.) Two qmails running at /var/qmail and /var/qmail1 with silent concurrency limit to 200 for both What was wrong with the answer I gave you on Tuesday? One more time, set up a box called slowmail and smtproute your slow moving deliveries to it. Mike

At least he's using the same sneakemail service. If everybody just ignores anything sent from sneakemail.com then we will probably be a whole lot better off. Mike
