I do have a proposal for you, though, which I think could be useful and not difficult to implement. What about making it possible for xmail to call a .dll when executing a filter script? It would then be possible to use products that are supported and stable products for persistent "cgi" execution. For example, Activestate's PerlEx product which is works with web servers. PerlEx keeps not only the perl interpreter persistent in memory, it also keeps a compiled version of the script in memory and so drastically increases performance. On a web server this is done by mapping an extension such as .cgi to the PerlEx dll. Then when a user requests something.cgi the web server executes it with the appropriate .dll. Very fast and would make filters running on windows machines extremely low overhead for those willing to pay for it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
