Dear, It would appear that the www4mail servers respond better when the following line is added to the conf/www4mail.cfg file. SendMailCmd= /usr/sbin/sendmail -O DeliveryMode=b -f $1 $2 The above line instructs sendmail to deliver the mail in the background and not to defer it (notice b instead of d). This should have the effect that the out-going mails from www4mail leave the server faster. Thanks Clement Onime Did anyone see my last mail on the software response to the LOAD MONITORING SYSTEM? ADDENDUM to that message: Error 501 - Server Unavailable or BUSY should not decrease the quota ... After much observations I noticed that the system load usually rises when users are trying to split and mail multiple parts of a mail message. I am thinking of introducing a 10 seconds delay into the main loop for mailing split parts. This will slow down the processing of split mails. Another idea is to have a system whereby split messages are queued for sending.... This way the server will only have to deal with one set of split files at a time. More delays for the split messages....
