* Avoid doing content filtering via 'headers' and 'body' rules.

* Upgrade your Python to 2.3.2 if you haven't already.

* Make sure you are using TMDA 0.86 or very close to that.

* Set CONFIRM_ACCEPT_NOTIFY = 0 to halve the number of messages TMDA
  sends out.

* Don't use any wildcards (e.g, [EMAIL PROTECTED]) in your list files,
  but only plain e-mail addresses ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or domains
  (mastaler.com, mail.mastaler.com, etc).

* Use -autocdb or -autodbm with all flat file lists.  -autocdb is
  probably better, but requires you install the python-cdb extension
  module.  -autodbm works out of the box.

* Upgrade your hardware -- hardware is astronomically cheap these
  days.

* Probably a few other things that I forgot.

Keep in mind that there are several sites processing thousands of
messages/day with TMDA, so if you continue to have problems, we might
need to take a closer look at your configuration.
