But all of this came from Craig complaining that not feeding every message to SA let him process mail on his old machine. He forgot to mention that being a secondary for Osirus was eating a lot of cycles. Now he gave a solid figure which I don't have handy but remember was close to 25,000/week. That's 3571/day. Granted some weekdays will be higher than weekends. Be that as it may 4-5k/day is a far cry from 5.8k/hour. IE given the information we had at the time of his first post it was, uhm, laughable that SA was somehow the deciding factor in his mail load. Even if he is bursting high 1800/hour should be able to cover his mail load with that hardware. Is it enough for heavy usage at a small ISP? Hardly. But for his setup? Definitely. -- Steve C.
