How did you do that without using something like formail to split out
the
messages?
Sorry that was unclear, I fed 250,000 messages through
formail/procmail/spamassassin in a lot less than 'all day' though I
didn't time it exactly, and the slowest part of my procmail is almost
certainly the reconstructing the correct FROM_ (since all the messages
had improper FROM_ headers due to their storage in MH style folders.
Interesting. You must be running on some hot hardware. My 2.4G P4,
finished
in 11.5 hours, using Bart's suggested pperl speedup. By my reckoning
that
would work out to 20.7 hours without the speed up, which is nearly 'all
day'.
That's 85486 messages, and 434 megs. of disk space (after the clean
up).
An Athlon 2000+ with 512MB Ram and FreeBSD 5.2.1. Message spool was
about 800MB (all text).
Very curious.
