I use it on a large installation (up to a 2 million messages per day).
Do you have at least a caching name server running on the hosts where
you do the scanning? It does do quite a few DNS checks, which
could/would affect latency.

Is there something in the config that I missed or it this plugin only meant
for small installations?
Thanks

Hi John, just checking out your plugin the first time. I notice that it just
untars all files to the current location. It would be nice if you could
encapsulate it in a directory, so that untarring creates a directory of the
same name as the filename (without the .tar suffix, of course).
Most tarred up distributions do this and if one doesn't and there are a lot
of other files in the same directory it's a nuisance to "collect" your
files.
